Scotch Game: Lolli Variation
Overview
Scotch Game: Lolli Variation is a specific line in the Open Games family (ECO C44), arising from a recognised theoretical position.
The Open Games group covers open games — classical 1.e4 e5 openings where both sides contest the centre directly with pawns.
It begins with 9 plies and takes 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. d4 Nxd4 4. Nxd4 exd4 5. Qxd4 to reach the canonical position.
The line refines Scotch Game: Lolli Variation, which traces back to the root opening King's Pawn Game.
