Alekhine Defense: Krejcik Variation
Overview
Alekhine Defense: Krejcik Variation is a specific line in the Semi-Open Games family (ECO B02), arising from a recognised theoretical position.
The Semi-Open Games group covers semi-open games — replies to 1.e4 where Black declines the symmetrical 1…e5 in favour of an asymmetric pawn structure.
The line arises from 3 plies — specifically the moves 1. e4 Nf6 2. Bc4.
The line refines Alekhine Defense, which traces back to the root opening King's Pawn Game.
It continues primarily into one named line, Krejcik Gambit.
