I'll just start a openings debater's thread, where you can simply debate whatever you wish for openings. As soon as we can agree on an answer, we can debate something else that has something to do with openings.

I have problems with this. What is a good move here?

1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Nc3 Bb4 4. Bc4 d6 { I make it here, and have problems  } 

 

5.Nd5 puts your knight on a central square where it can't be immediately displaced and threatens Nxb4. His b4-bishop is looking rather silly!

My insincts say to attack the Queen.

After 10 minutes of hard thinking, I came up with this;

9.Nxf6+ ...xf6 10.Nf7

Why is e4 considered a better fist move than d4?

Anyone have an idea?

I play d4 on a daily basis.

 

As for you, if youre confused about an opening, then it is usually not for you. Do what works!

d4 is sometimes used in queen's gambit.

Why is e4 considered a better fist move than d4?

Who says that ? d4 and e4 are both good opening moves , they control the centre and allow your bishops to develop . d4 has the tendency to produce more strategic games , and e4 more tactical , but this ofcourse depends on the other moves made . For example Petroff ( russian game ) has a tendency of being very dry and uninspiring and drawish , and that arises from 1.e4  e5  2. Nf3 Nf6 . SO just play what you feel most comfortable with . Although for a beginner I recommend you study more tactical and openings with less theory , Italian game can be a little dull but it's simple to play and there is little theory . Also I would advise to play Scotch game

1. e4 e5
2. Nf3 Nc6
3. d4  as it opens the centre and is good for teaching tactics.

e4  gives more scope since it frees to k bishop and queen to move on move meaning you should be able to develop quicker. scotch is good piazzini is good for white black try centre game the more wood you chop the safer you are and then you are set for the end game.

Hello! to all my frends there...d4 & e4 both fantastic opennings I agreed withTalfan of Pert WA, Australia, it depends I suggest if you are an attacker player and willing to sacrifice use e4 if not use d4 only my opinion.
