King's Gambit Declined: Zilbermints Double Gambit
Overview
King's Gambit Declined: Zilbermints Double Gambit is a gambit, classified under ECO code C30 within the Open Games family. As with all gambits, one side sacrifices material early — usually a pawn — in exchange for development, open lines, or initiative.
The Open Games group covers open games — classical 1.e4 e5 openings where both sides contest the centre directly with pawns.
It is reached after 6 plies of play, with the move sequence 1. e4 e5 2. f4 Nc6 3. Nf3 g5.
It is a variation of King's Gambit Declined: Queen's Knight Defense, which itself descends from the root opening King's Pawn Game.
