The Carr Defense, also known as the Krezie Defense, is a dubious chess opening characterized by the moves:

*1. e4 h6?!

Carr Defense is generally considered a weak response to the King's Pawn Opening, and so is classified under the code B00 in the Encyclopaedia of Chess Openings, along with other unorthodox replies to 1. e4. It is uncommon to see Carr's Defense in serious chess, although Michael Basman currently uses Carr's Defense, along with the Clemenz Opening, with decent success.

Named Variations

Carr's Defense has only one named variation, known as the Zilbermints Gambit. It continues:

*2. d4 e5
