Just want to see which game type is preffered among you players out there along with your reasons why. I myself prefer Queen Pawn closed games. I Prefer things to be closed because I do pretty well with that play style, plus i find in alot of cases, many people dont like closed games. I also like things to be a bit more complicated as closed games generally are. Let The Discussion Begin!
Anybody else? I already got the ball rolling...or tried to.
Hmm that's not very nice...I just wanted some opinions on game types.

I like closed games, more time for randomly shifting pieces :D
Though I do need to work on my attacking so 1.e4!
Yeah, E4 is pretty popular, i used to love it...then i discovered d4. Been playing with it for a couple months now.
with 1.d4 it's pretty hard to open the game
for some reason people( noobs) will play 1.d4 and push all their kingside pawns and i you castle your dead :P
and usually the c5- break isn't enought :(
Yeah, that is noobs though, I prefer to keep my game closed, Castle queenside, then throw kingside pawns. But it all depends on the situation.
umm... where did that that other guy go? you know the guy calling us fags
whitetrash or something?

I prefer to play open,..sharp and fast,..so I choose d4 for opening game, play open make me exciting..lol cause sometimes we can make blunder move and so do our oppenent...that;s why I like chess games,..very unique and interesting game..
I prefer to play open,..sharp and fast,..so I choose d4 for opening game
But D4 is the common move for a closed game. Do you mean E4?
Both Very good games, you did deal with those double pawns very well.
I hate gettin double pawns.
good game,... and Benny, no I mean d4 (queen gambit) I like that opening,..but sometimes I play e4. Basicly all opening are good to play with, if we familiar with it.
Ok, Queens gambit does lead to some closed games, not as many. i would call it more semi open. The declined line gets very closed.
Wanted; High rated players to compete with.
