2...e5, 2...e6, 2...g6, 2...Nc6, 2...c5, and 2...c6, 2...d5 and 2...b6.
2...e6, 2...g6 and 2...c5 should occupy most of your time. 2...c6 and 2...d5 transpose to things you would normally see after 1...d5. This leaves 2...Nc6, 2...e5 and 2...b6. I guess everything else is refuted.
first post...
I have been playing a while now and have started developing my opening repertoire more. Generally I like to play 1. d4.
My main weakness with this is that after 1. ... Nf6 2. c4 I feel completely swamped the variety of different lines that follow on from here, to the extent that I have been opting for 2. g3 instead, I think that this is a disservice to myself as c4 is a very strong move. So, my question, what are the responses to 2. c4 from black? which can be refuted, and which demand attention? What system do you usually employ when playing 1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 as white?
