THE GROB GAMBITT
What is your top 1 opening 🤔 ✨️ in chess
OnuragChes, unless the OP stated that the thread will only address white openings, black defense can count as openings.
Yeah but i meant dont say gambits
I like the caro cann defence because whenever we were black in a game with a person we won
That's my favorite opening ![]()
I dont like caro kann bc as white when black does the caro kann then u could just move the queens pawn 2 squares up and then BOOM the caro kann is in a losing postion
