Van Geet Opening: Billockus-Johansen Gambit
Overview
Van Geet Opening: Billockus-Johansen Gambit belongs to the gambit family of chess openings (ECO A00, 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 is reached after 4 plies of play, with the move sequence 1. Nc3 e5 2. Nf3 Bc5.
The line refines Van Geet Opening: Reversed Nimzowitsch, which traces back to the root opening Van Geet Opening.
