Queen's Gambit Accepted: Accelerated Mannheim Variation
Overview
Queen's Gambit Accepted: Accelerated Mannheim Variation is a sacrificial opening line filed under ECO D20 in the Closed & Semi-Closed Games group. The defining idea is the early concession of material to seize the initiative and unbalance the position.
The Closed & Semi-Closed Games group covers closed and semi-closed games — 1.d4 systems characterised by long strategic manoeuvring rather than early tactics.
The line arises from 5 plies — specifically the moves 1. d4 d5 2. c4 dxc4 3. Qa4+.
In the opening tree, this line branches off from Queen's Gambit Accepted, part of the broader Queen'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.
