Queen's Gambit Declined: Albin Countergambit, Fianchetto Variation, Be6 Line
Overview
Queen's Gambit Declined: Albin Countergambit, Fianchetto Variation, Be6 Line is a sacrificial opening line filed under ECO D09 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.
It begins with 10 plies and takes 1. d4 d5 2. c4 e5 3. dxe5 d4 4. Nf3 Nc6 5. g3 Be6 to reach the canonical position.
In the opening tree, this line branches off from Queen's Gambit Declined: Albin Countergambit, Fianchetto Variation, part of the broader Queen's Pawn Game system.
