I don't have one as long as it gives me a good position.

I like the 1 d4 opening as white in general no matter what black plays followed by c4 which gives me a safe game but with many active possibilities in the center. I also like the ruy lopez as white. My favorite black opening is the french which gives black plenty of counterplay and fits my style perfectly. Against d4, the King's Indian defense with similar chances for counterplay and hopefuly a closed center.
