i luv vienna game

It is so popular because it represents how good players play chess. It is completely principled. It's irrefutable, unlike "openings your opponent doesn't expect".

My videos are also oriented more towards beginners-intermediate. So these players don’t really know everything about principled openings. Also, I just think unpredictability in the opening is really useful.

I am Italian

I only play the Italian. Mainly because I’m always trying to play the Jerome Gambit because I think it’s funny. I always scream LEEERROOOYYY JEEEENNNKKKIIINS when I sacrifice the bishop.

Thank you

There are a bunch of variations with the Italian, I play the Italian and get crazy attacking games. Openings are just openings just like how you don’t play the Grob

Best opening!

I have 4 openings in my repertoire: If I'm white, I'd play the Queen's Gambit, if black plays d5. If they play Nf6, I will play the London System. If I'm black, and white plays d4, I play the King's Indian Defense. If they push e4, I play the Sicilian Dragon.

I don’t like the London, but everything else is great, you should watch my “what your opening says about you.

Against kings indian london is goated​@antho_boi9490 . I win 80 %of my games even if I'm almost 1900

I already beat a lot of national master with the four knights game. I do not play ruy lopez or italian, because it is complicated and I like playing simple chess openings. And I have 2500 rating, so playing simples chess is not losing. Actually, I think intermediate players should stop playing complicated chess openings, like sicilian, pirc defense, queens gambit positions, caro kann or french and play the symetrical E5. And stop replying D5 to D4, instead go for Nimzo-Indian, Queens Indian defense and Bogo-Indian with A5 (Wade-Smylov Line) to avoid catalan on move 3. Also, stop playing D4, play E4 it is simple, if they play the french, you go for the simple advance variation. If they do the caro-kann go for panov botnivvinik attack and play the grishuk piece sacrifice. If they go for the sicilian, play solid with the alapin c3. If they reply e5, go for 4 knights game and play (A3) gunsberg variation, it is simple they play d5, you take, pin their knight, you get double pawns, then you play D4 and most of the time they push E5 which is a mistake and you win a pawn and the game. Easy repertoire, my tip to intermediate players is... stop playing complicated stuff, you are not a genius like bobby fischer or Mikhail Tal, play simple chess to improve If they go for the pirc or moderne defense, stop trying for crazy opposite side castling, play G3 and fiancheto your bishop (Sveshinikov system) and go for a simple and positional game

I wonder if Evan was Italian?

Italian has got to be the most basic opening ever bcz of that its still good. Keep it up. Remember Jesus loves yall.
