Right now I'm learning the Sicilian Dragon with 9. O-O-O and the Maroczy Bind. Unfortunately not many of the games I play right now lead down those paths.
Chess openings
my favs are...
kings indian defence
danish gambit
caro kann defence
blackmar diemer gambit
benko gambit
and the scandinavian defence
Im really into the fritz gambit. im trying to find ways to add my own little twists to it. i used to be very found of the Reti, but now... im over it.
I hear this is a 12 step program....
Carro Kann
sicilian
French
The Budapest Gambit (AWESOME)
queens gambit
ruy lopez
reti
kings indian defense
czetch benoni
petrof
kings pawn
Poison Pawn, Italian Game, Latvian gambit as well as Charlick Gambit. still looking for a good opening for White.
As white: Queens gambit, English opening, Catalan, Colle-Zuckertort.
As black: Sicilian, Petrov and some random assortment of QGD set ups.
And trying to learn the Grunfeld tho the amount of theory is making my head explode.
But to narrow it a bit.. i have to say.... as white English opening or Queens gambit.
As black, O'Kelly / Kan variation of the sicilian.
