Look at www.thechesswebsite.com it has a lot of tutorials
It depends on your own strengths and weaknesses. If you are a patient player then I recommend playing c6 against any white opening in hopes of getting a c-k or a slav. If you're more dynamic, however, you can try an Indian defense against 1. d4 or a sharp line against 1. e4, like the Alekhine or Sicilian.
hi guys, im looking for some help with my openings as black. At the level i play at / my average opponents play it, i will only need 3 opening as black : one to defend against e4; one to defend against d4 and one that will work relatively well agaisnt anything else, the later being for school competitons when the opponent doesn't really know how to open . For e4 i play the sicillian, usualy though i just mesh together parts of all the diferent sicillian openings depending on each indivudual game ( Should i stick to one, if so what one?) . but as for d4, the best thing ive seen is queens gambit declined but id like something more aggresive. Finaly, any suggestions for the openings playabl agains any white attack.
All help would be much appreciated
