Most boring opening official unofficial vote.

Sort:
JackRoach

Ok. There are major yawn-a-thons in chess.

London System (which I play, but I'm trying to get better positionally. And attacking is fun)

Exchange French. (Terribly boring.)

4 Knights Opening. (Only way to make it fun is Halloween Gambit!)

There are many others, and you can vote for those too as long as they are well known.

 

My vote: French Exchange.

 

BORING OPENING VOTE:

London system: 9

Exchange French: 4

Giuoco pianissimo/piano: 2

Slav Defense: 1

Petroff: 1

Canal Sicilian: 1

Danish Gambit w/ d4 and queen trade: 1

Berlin: 1

4 knights: 1

Caro-Kann: 1

No, Eric Rosen plays it.

Do you mean damiano variation, or Stafford Gambit?
