Petrov's Defense: Cozio Attack
Overview
Petrov's Defense: Cozio Attack is a specific line in the Open Games family (ECO C42), arising from a recognised theoretical position.
The Open Games group covers open games — classical 1.e4 e5 openings where both sides contest the centre directly with pawns.
The line arises from 9 plies — specifically the moves 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nf6 3. Nxe5 d6 4. Nf3 Nxe4 5. Qe2.
The line refines Petrov's Defense, which traces back to the root opening King's Pawn Game.
