Scandinavian Defense: Kloosterboer Gambit
Overview
Scandinavian Defense: Kloosterboer Gambit belongs to the gambit family of chess openings (ECO B01, Semi-Open Games). It trades material for attacking chances — a classic trade-off that has fascinated players from the Romantic era to modern correspondence chess.
The Semi-Open Games group covers semi-open games — replies to 1.e4 where Black declines the symmetrical 1…e5 in favour of an asymmetric pawn structure.
Play reaches this position via 1. e4 d5 2. exd5 c6 3. dxc6 e5, after 6 plies of opening development.
The line refines Scandinavian Defense: Blackburne-Kloosterboer Gambit, which traces back to the root opening King's Pawn Game.
