King's Gambit Accepted: Bishop's Gambit, Anderssen Variation
Overview
King's Gambit Accepted: Bishop's Gambit, Anderssen Variation is a sacrificial opening line filed under ECO C33 in the Open Games group. The defining idea is the early concession of material to seize the initiative and unbalance the position.

It is reached after 8 plies of play, with the move sequence 1. e4 e5 2. f4 exf4 3. Bc4 d5 4. Bxd5 c6.
In the opening tree, this line branches off from King's Gambit Accepted: Bishop's Gambit, Bledow Variation, part of the broader King's Pawn Game system.
