Not a very good move limits your oposition and your opponent oposition maby if your looking for a draw it good plan but if your looking to win do e4 and use the most of your white advantage

The opening i use mostly is King pawn, but i see no real difference in the two, by the king pawn i see directly the crossline queen bishop open for quick attack situations, and by the queen pawn is see more the defensive situations.

But with my play-level it is not that important how i open, i loose many time by not overlooking the board good and give presents to my challenger.

But these kind of discusions helps me to understand the view of others to, the computer i played always against did not give any info so thanks to you all.

sure, but also you'll need support for the queen, to beat your opponent

I've got a much better record as black when queens pawn opening is used than when the kings pawn opening is used, my only losses have been against people with much higher ratings than me at the time.  Personally I find it a bit easier to play against than kings pawn.

i am a e4 player,and what i belive is none cant say surely which one is strongest e4 or d4,it u are interested to make a debate with me,i will suggest u to calm down cause it will be totally waste of time.e4 is generally known for its open play and d4 turns game to little bit closed.e4 is tactical d4 is vry comfortable for positional players.Kaspy said evry player will switch to d4 when they have studied e4 really deep,but dont go for it like a blind,u know why?cause the great bobby did not say anything like that:).so pick the move which matches with ur style.

This oppening immedietly takes 2 squares in the center. Not my favorite method, but effective. I think this move is an oppening that can't really be annalyzed deaply. I mean, there are so many things black could counter with, and this move is not going to win the game for white.

this is my exact style of chess playing, it doesn't fail you 99% of the time and you can open up a little more to attack

The queens pawn is without a doubt the strongest opening in chess IMO. However I only use it when I see fit too.

I use this one because my favorite opponent always uses the Sicilian Defence  on me if I use the  King's  Pawn opening.

I use this opening always as white and I find it awesome for learning more about chess like when knights are better than bishops and how to make them and how to bloke in the position (knights) and how to open it (bishops).  If you want to talk more of these openings message me.

I used to always play King pawn openings, until the games got too boring. I'd often manage a long, drawn out win or draw unless I got too creative somewhere in the middle game. So now I'm exploring Queen openings and always find the games more exciting. Now whether I win or lose, it's often in spectacular fashion.
