Queen's Gambit Declined, Cambridge Springs Defense
text:
In chess, the Cambridge Springs Defense is a variation of the Queen's Gambit Declined that begins with the moves: Black breaks the pin on the h4–d8 diagonal and forms a pin of their own on the c3-knight. If Black later plays dxc4, there may be threats against the g5-bishop. Note that 5.cxd5 cannot win a pawn because of the Elephant Trap. The main line continues 7.Nd2 Bb4 with the threat of ...Ne4 and pressure along the a5–e1 diagonal. The Encyclopaedia of Chess Openings code is D52.
