Caro-KannDefense Caro-KannDefense • Chess defense against the king’s pawn opening. • The opening is named after the English player Horato Caro and the Austrian player Marcus Kann who analyzed it in 1886.* • Caro-Kann Defense is more solid and robust than many alternatives and, thus, Black enjoys a significantly smaller chance of losing. • However, due to a strong position and pawn structure, Caro-Kann Defense results in a strong likelihood of Black winning later. * Wikipedia.
