I find an opening i like, and play over the first 5-10 moves so i have an idea of what to do, and then i get familiar with the pawn structure. Its not really that impressive. Years of tournament play has shown me that way to much emphasis is placed on openings by class players. As long as you play common sense moves, and follow opening principles you will get to a playable middlegame.
how many solid studied openings should one player have. I have seen people range from 3-9. i have 6, 2 for white, 2 for black against e4-d4 each. If you look back on my games you'll see a couple of expirements and some sicilians to counter the english, but the main 6 are about all i do. do i play enough or too few
