Hi Chess friends,
I am really really bored with the standard E4 opening , and I am even more bored with so mnay other members always using this. C'mon, whats the most attacking opening start that people like to gain advantage with?
I am really seraching your brains here cause some of you more experienced and highly-rated players will have favorites no doubt.
Comments are very and warmly welcome.

if you are actually bored with 1.e4 then i suggest that you start something like snowboarding....
there is no first move more active and attacking than 1.e4
LOL

And the answer is: e4 (is this a trick question or something?)...
other than 1...c5

"C'mon, whats the most attacking opening start that people like to gain advantage with?" its e4
OK-call my bluff; I really need to practise my openings-but I'll have to sit down at the Cheess computer web site and practise for hours and hours-so I thought I'd ask what do peole like to open with-maybe a prime set of moves etc (save me time and energy Ha Ha Lol !!
Go on e4 then wot ??
You could try the King's gambit, 1. e4 e5 2. f4
lol...the trick questions continue...
1... c5 or 1... e5; 2. Nf3.
1... d5 or 1... f5; 2. exd5 or exf5.
1... Nf6; 2. e5
Anything else, 2. d4
helpful?
