Alekhine Defense: How to Play as White and Black

Alekhine Defense: How to Play as White and Black 


Alekhine’s Defense Fundamentals

We enter Alekhine’s Defense after the opening moves 1.e4 Nf6.

Alekhine's Defense starting position is reached after 1.e4 Nf6

There is no advantage for White in avoiding 2.e5. Of all the main alternatives 2.Nc3 is White’s best choice with a possible transposition to the Vienna Game after 2…e5 or the Alekhine’s Defense Scandinavian Variation after 2…d5.
