Benoni Defense: King's Pawn Line, with Nge2
Overview
Benoni Defense: King's Pawn Line, with Nge2 is a specific line in the Flank Openings family (ECO A65), arising from a recognised theoretical position.
The Flank Openings group covers flank openings — systems that delay the central pawn break and instead develop pieces and pawns on the wings.
It is reached after 17 plies of play, with the move sequence 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 g6 3. Nc3 Bg7 4. e4 d6 5. f3 O-O 6. Nge2 c5 7. d5 e6 8. Ng3 exd5 9. cxd5.
The line refines Indian Defense: Normal Variation, which traces back to the root opening Queen's Pawn Game.
