Overview

Caro-Kann Defense: Karpov Variation, Tiviakov-Fischer Attack is a specific line in the Semi-Open Games family (ECO B17), 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.

It begins with 12 plies and takes 1. e4 c6 2. d4 d5 3. Nd2 dxe4 4. Nxe4 Nd7 5. Bc4 Ngf6 6. Nxf6+ Nxf6 to reach the canonical position.

The line refines Caro-Kann Defense: Karpov Variation, which traces back to the root opening King's Pawn Game.
