I am a big lover of this game. I am not trained, nor have I gone to any chess school. I don't know much about the theories, the openings...( I remember buying couple of books on chess openings few years back. ...just could not take out time to go through these...). But i just love to play chess. Whatever little I have learnt till now, that's out of experience of playing this game over last 7 years......

Blackmar Diemer Gambit. All games to begin 1)d4 d5 2)e4. This is a tactical and exciting chess opening. Maybe not completely sound but great fun......All are welcome.
