Torre Attack: Wagner Gambit
Overview
Torre Attack: Wagner Gambit belongs to the gambit family of chess openings (ECO A46, 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.
Play reaches this position via 1. d4 Nf6 2. Nf3 e6 3. Bg5 c5 4. e4, after 7 plies of opening development.
The line refines Torre Attack: Classical Defense, which traces back to the root opening Queen's Pawn Game.
