Grob Opening: Grob Gambit, Richter-Grob Gambit
Overview
Grob Opening: Grob Gambit, Richter-Grob Gambit is a sacrificial opening line filed under ECO A00 in the Flank Openings group. The defining idea is the early concession of material to seize the initiative and unbalance the 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 7 plies of play, with the move sequence 1. g4 d5 2. Bg2 c6 3. c4 dxc4 4. b3.
In the opening tree, this line branches off from Grob Opening: Grob Gambit Declined, part of the broader Grob Opening system.
