Hi guys, I'm a little new to chess.com so if I get something wrong with forum rules I'm sorry.
On to my question! I've been playing chess for about 5 years but I've never really bothered to study openings. I recently started playing online and I would consider myself a beginner. My rating on a 3rd party multiplayer iphone app is hovering around 1250 to 1350. I really like playing black because of the sicilian. I particularly like the sicilian because of it's versatility and the sharp lines it presents particularly on the dragon with the fianchetto bishop. I have found it to be quite unforgiving when I make a mistake too which I like as it allows me to know exactly where I went wrong and I can recheck the game.
I was wondering if there was an opening for white that's similar. Easy to learn but still has sharp lines and versatility.
Any help is really appreciated. Thanks for your time.
