Overview

Slav Defense: Bonet Gambit is a sacrificial opening line filed under ECO D11 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 7 plies and takes 1. d4 d5 2. c4 c6 3. Nf3 Nf6 4. Bg5 to reach the canonical position.

In the opening tree, this line branches off from Slav Defense: Modern Line, part of the broader Queen's Pawn Game system.
