Grob Opening: Zilbermints Gambit, Schiller Defense
Overview
Grob Opening: Zilbermints Gambit, Schiller Defense is a gambit, classified under ECO code A00 within the Flank Openings family. As with all gambits, one side sacrifices material early — usually a pawn — in exchange for development, open lines, or initiative.
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 6 plies of play, with the move sequence 1. g4 d5 2. e4 dxe4 3. Nc3 h5.
It is a variation of Grob Opening: Zilbermints Gambit, which itself descends from the root opening Grob Opening.
