4. e4 · Alekhine attack
[edit | edit source]White uses the fact that the capture has left the e4-square undefended and expends their centre, revealing an attack from the light-squared bishop on the c4 pawn.
Black generally holds onto their pawn with 4...b5, preparing to push b5-b4 if White challenges their pawn with a2-a4.
4...e5 was the first main line, but players with White have shown that it is not to be feared, scoring very well against it.
History
[edit | edit source]This move was popularised after being played in round 6 of the world championship rematch between Alexander Alekhine and Max Euwe,[1] which proceeded 4...e5 5. Bxc4 exd4 6. Nf6!? (if 6...dxc3 7. Bxf7+ Ke7 with the possible continuation of 8. Qb3 Qb6? 9. Bxg8 Rxg8 10. Qxg8 ± Sarapu - Anthony Garbett 1976[2]) 6...b5 7. Nxb5 Ba6 8. Qb3 Qe7 9. O-O Bxb5 10. Bxb5 ±. Alekhine went on to win the game.
It wasn't until 1939 that players started holding onto the c4 pawn with 4...b5.[3]
