The King's Gambit Declined: Falkbeer Countergambit (C31) is a notable King's Gambit Declined variation, marked by the move d5. Traditionally favored by Mikhail Tal, this system emphasizes sacrificial initiative.
Strategic Context: Departing from the common King's Gambit Declined (Bc5), this line chooses d5. It succeeds by maintaining a solid objective evaluation while changing the character of the game. This move exerts pressure on e4 and c4. Plans should focus on how to focus on maneuvering and wing expansion and develop rapidly.
Next Steps: In the resulting middlegame, players must focus on how to prioritize maneuvering and flank attacks.
Data Analysis: Statistical models suggest equality (Eval: +0.23), with a high probability of a draw.
Also known as: KGD: Falkbeer Countergambit, Falkbeer Counter-Gambit, KGD; C31, KGD: Falkbeer counter-gambit
