I understand the LSB problem with ..e6 ..g6 but what do you mean by "dark-squared liablities on the kingside"?
Thanks for the very quick answer by the way.
Why is this opening bad? 1.d4 e6 2.c4 g6
Sort:
I understand. My opponent missed the e4-e5 opportunity it seems.
So black could be better after 7.b3 dxe right? (Attacking d4 with 4 pieces)
Thank you very much sir.
You made 2 pawn moves to develop 1 piece. What's the point of it ?
Why would black capture anything when he can develop?
8...Nd7 and black has a very safe position.

You mean sort of like this opening:

But here White is making pawn moves not only to facilitate development but also to gain space and limit the scope of Black's pieces, e.g. the b6-knight is not especially well placed. Of course, by playing this way, Black is saying that White may be making too many pawn moves, creating weak squares.
And in his position he is inviting black to attack, but with a very solid setup.
Unless, white has a serious refutation for the opening, I don't see how it's bad after 8...Nd7.

Well, I was commenting on the Alekhine Defense example you gave (1.e4 Nf6 etc.) but your 8...Nd7 refers to Bahadir's game.
I'm not completely ignorant on the openings. I know about the Alekhine Defense.
In a recent game I played as black: 1.d4 e6 2.c4 g6
Computer gives 0.3 points to white. But why?
2...b6 is English defense and why is b6 better?
In both cases you fianchetto your bishop and control the center. What's the difference?
Thanks.
