French Defense: Baeuerle Gambit
Overview
French Defense: Baeuerle Gambit belongs to the gambit family of chess openings (ECO C00, Open Games). It trades material for attacking chances — a classic trade-off that has fascinated players from the Romantic era to modern correspondence chess.
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 4 plies — specifically the moves 1. e4 e6 2. d4 b5.
The line refines French Defense: Normal Variation, which traces back to the root opening French Defense.
