I don't like the King's Gambit, too risky for me. Old players used to play it in demonstration games a lot because it is "exciting", i.e. opens up tactical play quickly. I don't know a lot about the accelerated dragon, but it is popular... I Like the Queen's Gambit most of all.. for white or black. I usually play the 2) c4 c6 variation (I forget the name, it is some Russian Name) for black, as for white, it depends, but I mostly play 1) e4 or 1) c4 openings (i.e. King's Pawn or "English"). Good question...!

 There were only three openings mentioned... I also won't take the risk for the KG and don't know the accelerated dragon, but I am fond of the QC. (btw, 2. c4 c6 is the slav)

I play the Sicilian, but prefer the Dragon, Najdorf and Scheveningen.

That's only three openings...

Fear, Surprise, Ruthless efficiency, and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.

Queen's gambit, the only one that is not dubious.

 There are 3 kinds of people in the world : those who can count, and those who can't.  Wink

The accelerated dragon is sound, and I would even argue that the regular dragon is sound.

I thought it was ten kinds of people. Those who know binary and those who don't.

Unless you write it as "10 kinds of people", it's not a joke at all.
