With this tactical element, an attack on an enemy piece is carried out as a result of the withdrawal of one’s own piece or pawn from the line of attack. As a result, our linear figure opens an attack on the enemy’s object. Let's look at examples.
1. e4 e6 2. d4 d5 3. e5 c5 4.c3 Nc6 5. Kf3 Qb6 6. Cd3 cd 7. cd
Option played. White set a trap. If black plays now 7. ... N:d4?? 8. N:d4 Q:d4??, then after 9. Cb5+! they will lose their queen. The white bishop opened an attack on the strongest piece with check. Black is forced to defend against the latter and does not have time to move his queen from the line of attack.
A comical incident occurred in the next game.
Popil - Marco, Monte Carlo 1902
In this position, Black resigned because he thought that he was losing the d4 bishop due to . Meanwhile, they had a spectacular move at their disposal Cg1!!, combining an open attack on the queen and the threat of mate on h2. The whites would have to surrender.
In general, a connection to a long-range piece can turn into an open attack at any moment. You should always be on your guard. Here's another example:
1. d4 d5 2. c4 e6 3. Kc3 Kf6 4. Cg5 Kbd7 5. cd ed
6. K:d5? Winning a pawn thanks to a pin? 6. ... N:d5!! No. Losing the knight with an open attack on the bishop. 7. B:d8 Bb4+! 8. Qd2 C:d2+ 9. Kp:d2 10. Kp:d8
The following situation is also very typical.
This position was created after 1. d4 d5 2. c4 e6 3. Kc3 Kf6 4. e3 Cb4 5. Cd2 Ke4? Black made a mistake with his last move. Now after 6. K:e4!(open attack on an elephant) C:d2+ 7. K:d2 White is left with an extra piece. A similar pattern of open attack occurs quite often in the opening and middlegame.
In this lesson we will talk and analyze the “Open Attack” chess combination. An open attack is a chess combination that involves two pieces - the one that moves and the one thatopens as a result this progress. The piece that makes the move can be any: , pawn, bishop, etc. and the piece that opens the move is the rook, bishop and queen.
Let's look at a couple of examples of open attack combinations. Diagram 1 The white knight from the “g4” square moved to the “e5” square, simultaneously opening a line for the rook to attack the opponent’s king and . Second example, diagram 2, the white pawn from square “c4” moved to “c5”, opening the move for the white bishop, which in turn attacks the black queen.
What is the tactical use of a chess combination in an open attack? Most often used to gain a material advantage, attack the opponent's king, gain a positional advantage in the form of spatial advantage, gain tempo and much more.
An example of a successful attack on the king using the “open attack” combination, White checkmates the black king in 3 moves (Diagram 3). 1.Nh6+ Kрh8 2.Rg8+ R:g8 3.K:f7x.
Next example (Diagram 4), winning using the open attack combination 1.Nd4:e6! White captured the black bishop (gained a material advantage in the form of a bishop) and at the same time attacked the black queen with his rook, the knight from square e6 now threatens on f8 and g7.
As can be seen from the examples, the open attack combination is widely used to fight for positional advantage (attack on the king, etc.) and to gain material advantage.
