Dutch Defense: Korchnoi Attack
Overview
Dutch Defense: Korchnoi Attack is a specific line in the Flank Openings family (ECO A80), 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 3 plies of play, with the move sequence 1. d4 f5 2. h3.
The line refines Dutch Defense, which traces back to the root opening Queen's Pawn Game.
It continues primarily into one named line, Dutch Defense: Janzen-Korchnoi Gambit.
