Italian Game - The Greco-Möller Attack - Conclusion

 

The Greco-Möller Attack is suitable for all those who want to invest some time in learning concrete opening theory. If you subject yourself to this work, which is limited here, White often gets positions in which White has good attacking chances. In the Greco-Möller Attack, whoever calculates and combines better wins.  In this respect, this opening is particularly recommended for ambitious amateurs. A reasonable effort beforehand and then enjoy the chess.

If Black's Italian 3.-Bc5 is part of their repertoire, they must have a good reply to the Greco-Möller attack. If Black has such an answer, there is at least an open and interesting game.
