Dutch Defense: Classical Variation
Overview
Dutch Defense: Classical Variation is a variation within the Flank Openings family, indexed as ECO A90.
The Flank Openings group covers flank openings — systems that delay the central pawn break and instead develop pieces and pawns on the wings.
It begins with 9 plies and takes 1. d4 f5 2. c4 Nf6 3. g3 e6 4. Bg2 d5 5. Nf3 to reach the canonical position.
It is a variation of Dutch Defense: Classical Variation, which itself descends from the root opening Queen's Pawn Game.
