Dutch Defense: Leningrad, Basman System
Overview
Dutch Defense: Leningrad, Basman System is a specific line in the Flank Openings family (ECO A81), 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 begins with 10 plies and takes 1. d4 f5 2. g3 c6 3. Bg2 g6 4. Nf3 Bg7 5. O-O Nh6 to reach the canonical position.
The line refines Dutch Defense: Fianchetto Attack, which traces back to the root opening Queen's Pawn Game.
