I wonder... everybody here likes and prefers open or semiclosed Chess position... how does it happen then ... that the closed positons apear so often on the Chess board !? )))
Do you prefer open positions or closed positions?

Semi closed, and positional.
Because that's where my opponents seem to make the most mistakes.

for example, the game I lost against you in an open position was far more fun to me than the games I beat you in a (relatively) closed game. Just a personal thing.
The only reason you beat me in the only closed position is because I blundered my queen to a one move tactic after getting a +5 positional advantage
bruh

yah
you blundered your queen
see?
You are correct!
bye.

A chess player who says that he only lost because he blundered is like a car driver who says that he only had an accident because he wasn't paying attention.

Lol true

closed always.
You prefer closed positions, but you always fianchetto.
what is that supposed to mean? They all end up closed anyways.
In closed positions, fianchettoed bishops usually don't have straight lines.
do you really play chess?

Guys, play a new game then. )

I prefer unbalanced semi-open positions... such as those found in the Sicilian Najdorf or Scheveningen.
Oh yes

I definitely love closed games. But recently, I've coming upon opponents that like to use some pawn breaks to blow open the center and make it an open game which I'm not all that good at playing.
Not even close: open positions are by far the greatest beauty in chess, the tactics raining down and brilliant sacrifices are what breathes life into this ancient game and keep it interesting.
Playing closed games is literally like playing tic-tac-toe or checkers. Even if you win it's not fun. At all.
If you wanna go down that path...
closed positions make sense.
