i was really original when i was a patzer so i thought i'd learn the Italian game. i don't play that opening anymore because only every blitz player on the planet plays it.
First opening that you've learned ?
When I was well under 1000 and terrible at most aspects of chess, the first opening I learned was the Pirc Defense
The first openings I studied seriously though were the Bb5 Sicilian (white), Caro-Kann, and Slav Defense
As a kid, probably about ten or so, I remember reading a chess book in the school library that was about the sicilian. It made no sense to me and I thought c5 to be a dumb move. I didn't study chess then and basically just knew how the pieces moved... and maybe the fool's mate. Anyway I guess, in a sense, the sicilian is my first known opening.
