Indian Defense: Devin Gambit
Overview
Indian Defense: Devin Gambit is a gambit, classified under ECO code E00 within the Indian Defenses family. As with all gambits, one side sacrifices material early — usually a pawn — in exchange for development, open lines, or initiative.
The Indian Defenses group covers Indian defences — hypermodern lines where Black challenges the centre with pieces rather than pawns.
