    I like the Queen's Gambit. It provides me with easy development, and it's just fun.

    Game 2931418

    another opening which violates just about every single chess principle.

    Another nonsense, possible only against weak players. For example instead 4.Bc4 which allows 4...b5, white can play 4.Nc3. also white didnt need to sacrifice on f7 - they would have large advantage.

    on topic I like the Benko gambit as it drops a pawnfor long term compensation. The declined variations are also quite fun.

    Hi there, I am doing a term project on chess openings, and wanted to have your opinion about it. What is the most exiting opening for you? Why?

    In this way, I may put in a sentence like "In RHP.com, a CC site, most users prefer the x opening, for it suits their .... playing style." I also want to put some example games of such openings, if I can.

    For me, the most exciting opening is the King's Gambit. Never played it though...
    Offbeat openings are exciting, such as the Orangutang (1.b4), Bird's (1.f4), and the Fried Fox, or Hammerschlag (1.f3, 2.Kf2). However, I prefer to play solid positional openngs, such as the Queen's Gambit, the Reti, and the Catalan. As black I play the French and the Slav, but enjoy the excitement of the Kalashnikov Sicilian and the Benko/Volga Gambit.

    I have an over 80% score with the Fried Fox--two correspondence games and lots of blitz.
