Overview

Nimzo-Larsen Attack: Ringelbach Gambit is a gambit, classified under ECO code A01 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 5 plies of play, with the move sequence 1. b3 f5 2. Bb2 e6 3. e4.

It is a variation of Nimzo-Larsen Attack: Dutch Variation, which itself descends from the root opening Nimzo-Larsen Attack.
