Improve Your Chess with the Right Chess Moves: 

A Knight on the rim is dim

Example 3

1.d4 d5 2.e4
The Blackmar-Diemer Gambit. White wants to sacrifice a pawn for quick development

2...f5?
Black should accept the pawn and play 2...dxe4

3.exd5
3.exf5 allows Black to develop a piece with 3...Bxf5

3...Na6?
This does nothing for Black's game. Black should play 3...Qxd5 and keep the pawn, even though the queen comes out early

4.Bb5+
Normally the knight helps protect the c6 square. Now White attacks the exposed king

4...c6?

Black should try 4...Bd7. Now White can play 5.Bxa6 bxa6 6.c4 with a strong center, up a pawn, and leaving Black with double pawns

5.dxc6 bxc6
5...Kf7 6.Nf3 and 7.Ne5+ is strong

6.Bxc6+ Bd7 7.Bxa8
Winning the exchange and two pawns.
