King's Pawn Game: Gunderam Defense, Gunderam Gambit
Overview
King's Pawn Game: Gunderam Defense, Gunderam Gambit is a sacrificial opening line filed under ECO C40 in the Open Games group. The defining idea is the early concession of material to seize the initiative and unbalance the position.
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. Nf3 Qe7 3. Bc4 f5.
In the opening tree, this line branches off from Gunderam Defense, part of the broader King's Pawn Game system.
Use the board to walk through every move, check how the position has scored on Lichess, or take it head-to-head against Stockfish.
