Overview

Réti Opening: Anglo-Slav Variation, Bogoljubow Variation, Stonewall Line is a specific line in the Flank Openings family (ECO A14), 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.

It begins with 13 plies and takes 1. Nf3 d5 2. c4 e6 3. g3 Nf6 4. Bg2 Be7 5. O-O O-O 6. b3 c6 7. Bb2 to reach the canonical position.

The line refines Réti Opening, which traces back to the root opening Zukertort Opening.
