opening repertoire

just out of curiosity, between online (correspondence) chess and live (OTB) chess:

do you use the same opening repertoire for both?
or do you have separate repertoires for each?

I'll play the sicilian in live chess. Turn-based I never play it. That is my only difference in opening repertoire

Well - do you? I always try to play the same openings, if you know them well, they also go quicker in live chess.

Same for both. But since my repertoire has being going through constant change this past year its hard to say since CC games take a month or so to finish.

I use the same for both. Unfortunately I don't know my theory as well as I should, so in live/OTB chess I suffer a lot more in the opening/early middlegame than in correspondence chess. One day though, and this will be a long ways from now, I will get my opening repertoire down and have a very good start to every game (I hope).

i don't always play the same openings. i do tend to use live games more as practice games so i'll try out different openings and such.

also, i'll sometimes play openings that are more difficult for my opponent to play against in live games where they don't have an opening database at their disposal (such as the morra gambit - which is more difficult to play when your opponent has an opening database to use).

I play Najdorf live/blitz but never online or in real life. In real life I depend on the French while online I sometimes play Caro-Kann or Sicilian Scheveningen.

Against d4 I play KID and QID online and Nimzo-Indian, QG, Slav, or Transposing into French w/ e6 live. In real life I use only Nimzo and QID

Sometimes in bullet chess, I will play open games rather than say, the French, just because it is faster and more tactical.

also, i'll play the scandinavian against 1. e4 live, but i usually play sicilian in online games.

Same for both.

I decided some time ago that I'd only use two openings for blitz. Against 1. e4 the Alekhine and against 1. d4 the Benko gambit. I never play those openings on a slower time control.

I use openings that I do not know in Correspondence more than I would with Live because I need time to think; learn the opening before I feel I can start using it in a live game...however, I have not played the Queen's Gambit before and I have no time to play more correspondence games so I have started using it in Live before actually learning it in correspondence.

My normal (old) opening as White is 1) e4 hoping for an Evan's Gambit if my opponent follows along; now it's 1) f4 (Bird's Opening) because I seen nothing other than 1)...c5 when I play e4; I am also trying to learn the Queen's Gambit (Queen's Pawn Opening). I use to play the King's Gambit as well although that was a long, long time ago and I find that I'm not very good at it anymore if I ever was (something has changed, hopefully for the better).

I did not have an opening as Black other than the Scandinavian Defense versus e4...now I look to play the Sicilian Dragon or some variation of it against e4; I play Nf6 versus d4 and continue play depending on how my opponent reacts...Modern Benoni, Benko Gambit, or some King's Indian type opening. I'm thinking about the French although I have no time to study the Sicilian and the French as well. The Petroff Defense is something I'll have to look into when I get more time as I hear good things about it. The Dutch (Stonewall or Modern) was a good opening before for me against d4, although I have now switched to Nf6...I still pull it out occasionally.

Now that I think about it, that's actually a lot of different openings compared to before I started playing again (about a year ago).

there are some gambits I play in live but don't play em in CC (Blackmar-Diemer,Danish,Latvian,Bronstein)

I play the Queens gambit,Caro-Kann,Alekhine,Dutch,Sicilian in both though

Same for both, although I'll enter thematic tournaments online to learn new stuff.
