<White>: I mainly play <<<1.e4!!>>> My favorite variations are the Closed Spanish, English Attack, and many gambits that I experiment with every once in a while for a surprise. <Black>: I play many different Sicilians against 1.e4, mostly the Najdorf though. Against 1.d4 I play the NID, QID, and QGD. -- My Game Collections --
Game Collection: The Ruy Lopez This one covers almost EVERY variation in the Ruy, and also has some interesting links for people wanting to learn more about this opening. Game Collection: The Open Games: 1.e4 e5 Together with my collection on the Ruy Lopez, this collection completes my coverage of every opening after 1.e4 e5. Great for learning all those annoying deviations like the Petroff and Philidor and how to beat them as white. Game Collection: The Greatest Blunders in Chess Blunders! If you're sitting at your computer on a rainy day with nothing to do, these will entertain you! (no rhyme intended) -- My Best Mates Ever --
