Like Anderssen's Opening, 1. Anderssen's Opening is a Chess opening defined by the opening move 1 a3, 1. h3 is a time-wasting move even though it does not do much harm either. It makes no claim on the central squares, nor does it aid the development of any piece. It also leads to a slight weakening of the king's side, albeit not as severely as Grob's Attack, 1.

One of the weaker plausible responses by Black would be 1. . . f5, when White can play 2. d4, transposing to a sharp line against the Dutch Defense introduced by Korchnoi. The Dutch Defence is a Chess opening characterised by the moves 1 Viktor Lvovich Korchnoi (also Korchnoy Kortchnoy Kortschnoi etc White's idea is to play 3. g4!? even if it entails a pawn sacrifice (2. g4!? is also possible), one possible continuation being 2. d4 Nf6 3. g4!? fxg4 4. hxg4 Nxg4 5.
