Players who abandon after 1.d4

It's not frightening, but it is extremely annoyingly solid for white forcing me to try for an advantage throughout the middle game and often the end game. I like to gain my winning advantage as early as possible so there are less chances I'll have time to mess it up(which I'm really good at).

😂...I do feel bad.

Personally, I play through it. I've had to learn the Dutch Defence, which I've come to enjoy, and even dabbled with the Benoni for a while. At first I didn't mind d4, mostly because I didn't encounter it that often, but then things changed. It's a beautiful opening, though. I only sigh when I'm confronted with d4 because it's a little tough for black. I plan to change that experience soon.

Come to think of it, I believe that this issue might be linked to the Sicilian. A lot of players still prefer to play the Sicilian as black. Because of this, they've grown used to certain positions and a particular style of game. 1.d4 seems to be the one move that completely kills that for black.

I think it would be an interesting study for everyone at home. Survey your friends and fellow chess mates to see if the dislike of d4  (from black's perspective) is linked to the popularity of e4 and the Sicilian.

Personally, I've found that the traits found in the Sicilian can also be induced with quite a few other openings. All but one: 1.d4 

1. d4 is just as solid as 1...e4, e4 is just more common and so it is studied more by novice or beginners 

I'm basically just an experienced beginner so like all of them I know way more about e4 openings then I do about all the others combined.

Lol same...I'm okay with playing against d4 but it isn't my favorite 

I Didn't won in any game

I am only playing less than 6 months, i played almost 1000 D4 games, because the opening i try to learn is the "London" and it was recommended as easy to learn and good for beginners. Also Magnus Carlson plays it :-) There are many video's on UTube on how to play. It is a strong defense against attacking players and there are some simple checkmating attack ideas.  You can also play this system as black !!!

After my friend started playing it, being his opponent was hardly any fun. He was always about 200 rating below me, and I really enjoyed ripping open the position and winning material in the opening and early middle game. After he started playing the London though, it was always really hard to break through. Nowadays I have to work hard in the late middle game to early endgame to gain my advantage, because more often then not any sort of attack with all the pieces still on the board just results in a bunch of trades. I'm a very tactical player, so when there are no tactics in sight I don't really know what to do with my pieces.

Redevelop them and use them to create targets.

1. d4 e5

Englund Gambit. After you learn it properly, you can convert 1. d4 into good positions for black

I don't really like gambits though (usually)

not really a gambit. you get it back usually

I wish more people would resign.lol

Could try d4 maybe

i wouldnt know cause i am not a wimp and i play 1.e4

guess who i am

2 hints. 

1. Only play 1.e4

2. This is obviously not my main account

3. I dont care about counting, whether in life or chess peices but i am in calculus
