CHESS OPENINGS
If you want to win games, you need learn how to play chess openings, which are a series of plays that help you develop your pieces fast and establish control of the centre of the board. Keeping this in mind I analysed one opening for black and one for white to help you have a better start which will ensure your game goes well.
QUEENS GAMBIT
The Queen's Gambit is one of White's most well-known openings. The Queen's Gambit, unlike other 1.e4 openings, frequently turns into a strategic game rather than an all-out tactical war. Despite the fact that it has been around for centuries, every elite player's repertoire includes this opening. It's also a great option for intermediate and beginner players.
The Queen's Gambit, despite its name, does not gambit a pawn because Black can't truly hold on to the extra pawn safely.
The pros are:
Control over the centre
Gains more space
It puts instant pressure on Black
The cons are:
White may have to wait a long time to reclaim the pawn.
Against the black king, you have fewer attacking options.
Black could go for a d4 counterattack.
CARO KANN DEFENSE
The Caro-Kann Defense is well-known for its sturdiness. The defining move, 1. c6, is the fourth most common response to 1.e4 and nearly twice as popular as the fifth. It prepares for 2. d5 without blocking in the light-squared bishop, which is regarded as the French Defense's fundamental flaw (1.e4 e6). The Caro-Kann was a favourite of world champion GM Anatoly Karpov. It was a go-to for positional players at practically every level.
Most variations of the Caro-Kann start with 1.e4 c6, with most variations continuing with 2.d4 d5. For the Caro-Kann, either of these positions is commonly regarded as the starting position.
Pros of the opening include:
Pawn construction that is sound
Bishop of free light-squared
dependable and safe
Cons of the opening are:
There is less room for black.
Development is taking longer.
White elicits a wide range of responses.
