Overview

Zukertort Opening is a specific line in the Flank Openings family (ECO A05), arising from a recognised theoretical position.

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. Nf3 Nf6 2. Nc3 Nc6.

The line refines Zukertort Opening, which traces back to the root opening Zukertort Opening.
