Why I have to face with an annoying opening like King's Indian Defense every third game? What should I do about that?
I know that beginners should not place such an emphasis on opening theory, however: I am curious how deep your opening theory goes rychessmaster1? Obviously, everyone knows some lines far deeper than others: my question is, "which line do you feel most confident in saying you know x moves deep and how many moves deep into it?" Personally, I know some Slav lines 15 or so moves into opening theory. However, I also know that many Sicilian Defense or Ruy Lopez lines have reputations for being deep into theory (sometimes even 30 moves deep or so!).
thanks for the response; it feels similar in trend to mine too. Some openings I know fairly deep and others I barely know the first half a dozen moves or so (although you know a few more ten moves plus deep than I do).
How did you learn Openings?
A. Use Openings Explorer and Database
B. Study Openings Manual like MCO and FCO
C. Study specific opening book like The French Defense Explained
D. Analyze Game Collection of One Opening
E. Watch chess video about Openings
Sicilian Najdorf I know nearly 30 moves deep in some sub-variations. My "Kids, don't try this at home" game didn't leave book theory until move 28, for example. Some other openings I probably know less theory than you.
Why can’t anyone just ask some kind of question?
What kind would you like? Here is one. Why is a raven like a writing desk?

"Because it can produce a few notes, though they are very flat; and it is never put with the wrong end in front!

Never bring a chess clock with you when traveling by plane. It was mistaken for a bomb during x-ray of luggage. It cause the airport trouble as they had a false bomb alert.
Why are beginners shy? Which system or opening benefits beginners most? Colle System, Kings Indian Attack, or Nimzo-Larsen Attack. Beginners are advised to play minimum openings repertoire.
Colle without a doubt.
When I was a teenager, I became so traumatized by facing Colle mating attacks that I started playing the Gruenfeld and in the 40 years since I've never again answered 1.d4 with 1...d5.
