Bishop's Opening: Urusov Gambit, Panov Variation
Overview
Bishop's Opening: Urusov Gambit, Panov Variation is a sacrificial opening line filed under ECO C24 in the Open Games group. The defining idea is the early concession of material to seize the initiative and unbalance the position.
The Open Games group covers open games — classical 1.e4 e5 openings where both sides contest the centre directly with pawns.
The line arises from 12 plies — specifically the moves 1. e4 e5 2. Bc4 Nf6 3. d4 exd4 4. Nf3 d5 5. exd5 Bb4+ 6. c3 Qe7+.
In the opening tree, this line branches off from Bishop's Opening: Urusov Gambit, part of the broader King's Pawn Game system.
