The English: Caro-Kann Defence, 3.e3 (A11) is a distinct English Opening variation, defined by the move e3. Historically played by Anatoly Karpov, this system highlights solid pawn structures and endgame resilience.
Strategic Context: While g3 is the main choice, e3 offers a different perspective. It succeeds by maintaining a similar objective evaluation while altering the flavor of the game. This move grabs space. Plans should focus on how to control the key diagonals to exert long-term pressure and develop rapidly.
Next Steps: From here, play typically proceeds with Nf6, leading into the English.
Data Analysis: Statistical models suggest White advantage (Eval: +0.57), with decisive results likely.
