Many beginners like to play the following opening: e4 e5 Nf3 f6 without knowing how bad it is. After playing f6 they fall into a simple (yet powerful) trap and lose the game. If you are a beginner you should take a look at the following game, and learn how NOT to play chess.
I used to play that but now I don't.

When black plays Qe7, I usually react like this:
The kingside of the black is now weakened and the black queen is in the centre so white can chase it with Nc3. Black loses time and is behind in development.
Yeah that's a good counter.

I quite like the Orthoschnapp gambit :
1. e4 e6
2. c4 d5
3. cxd5 exd5
4. Qb3 dxe4
5. Bc4
It is ridiculous but fun. I learnt it from a Gotham chess video
Pawn of Rocks
