Zukertort Opening: Tennison Gambit, Brigg's Trap
Overview
Zukertort Opening: Tennison Gambit, Brigg's Trap is a sacrificial opening line filed under ECO A06 in the Flank Openings group. The defining idea is the early concession of material to seize the initiative and unbalance the position.
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 10 plies — specifically the moves 1. e4 d5 2. Nf3 dxe4 3. Ng5 Nf6 4. Nc3 Bf5 5. Qe2 Qd4.
It branches immediately from Zukertort Opening: Tennison Gambit in the opening tree.
