Overview

Hungarian Opening: Winterberg 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 7 plies of play, with the move sequence 1. g3 d5 2. Bg2 e5 3. c4 dxc4 4. b3.

The line is a first-level refinement of Hungarian Opening.
