Old Indian Defense: Tartakower-Indian
Overview
Old Indian Defense: Tartakower-Indian is a named branch in the Flank Openings group of chess theory, classified under ECO A54.

It is reached after 6 plies of play, with the move sequence 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 d6 3. Nf3 Bg4.
In the opening tree, this line branches off from Old Indian Defense, part of the broader Queen's Pawn Game system.
