Hungarian Opening: Asten Gambit
Overview
Hungarian Opening: Asten Gambit is a gambit, classified under ECO code A00 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.
It begins with 10 plies and takes 1. g3 Nc6 2. Nc3 d5 3. d4 e5 4. dxe5 d4 5. Ne4 f5 to reach the canonical position.
It is a direct variation of Hungarian Opening.
