Love this one. I love the one where I'm up a pawn or two too!

I like the Ponziani and From's Gambit since they both set a few traps.

The Ponziani:

Froms Gambit:

The Dragadorf. A complex, flavorful innovation that combines the sharp Dragon and the "Rolls-Royce of Chess Openings," the Najdorf.

I used to play that until I learned that it wasn't to good for my blood pressureTongue out. Blacks king feels so naked in the center.

I like classical lines and IQP positions.

I love the English. I can play it every time, and never have to play against the French, Caro-Kann, Sicilian (except reversed), Scandinavian, Alekhines, Pirc, or any of the 47 other answers to 1. e4. It has really simplified my life.
