Best to attack slowly than to attack quickly and lose material.

this is a defensive method. for me I like to play as an atacker rather than defending my positions. what do you think of that guys?

Does anyone understand the name (as shown) of the opening? It seems incorrect (the "Smith-Morra" portion of it). Black captured on d4 as soon as it was offered, and the opening moves are truncated before Black has shown any intention of accepting or declining on c3.
Actually, I've been thinking for weeks now that someone unqualified is inventing new opening names here on Chess.Com.

The Sicilian Defense is by far the most popular opening for Black and the most aggressive response to white’s opening move 1. e4. By striking back in the center Black can achieve a very dynamic, imbalanced position which has statistically fared far better than other opening lines.

I think black looses control of the centre guys
