Réti Opening: Réti Gambit, Keres Variation
Overview
Réti Opening: Réti Gambit, Keres Variation belongs to the gambit family of chess openings (ECO A09, Flank Openings). It trades material for attacking chances — a classic trade-off that has fascinated players from the Romantic era to modern correspondence chess.
The Flank Openings group covers flank openings — systems that delay the central pawn break and instead develop pieces and pawns on the wings.
It begins with 6 plies and takes 1. Nf3 d5 2. c4 dxc4 3. e3 Be6 to reach the canonical position.
The line refines Réti Opening: Réti Accepted, which traces back to the root opening Zukertort Opening.
