Overview

Zukertort Opening: Lisitsyn Gambit is a gambit, classified under ECO code A04 within the Flank Openings family. As with all gambits, one side sacrifices material early — usually a pawn — in exchange for development, open lines, or initiative.

The Flank Openings group covers flank openings — systems that delay the central pawn break and instead develop pieces and pawns on the wings.

The line arises from 3 plies — specifically the moves 1. Nf3 f5 2. e4.

It is a variation of Zukertort Opening: Dutch Variation, which itself descends from the root opening Zukertort Opening.
