Overview

Polish Opening: Bugayev Attack is a specific line in the Flank Openings family (ECO A00), 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.

The line arises from 3 plies — specifically the moves 1. b4 e5 2. a3.

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