Opening name

edit

Hi Mike,

As a matter of interest what opening name do you give to:

  • 1. d4 d6
  • 1. Nf3

I'm sure there are some more problematic opening names. Will add them as I encounter them. SunCreator (talk) 08:13, 22 April 2008 (UTC)Reply


1.d4 d6 doesn't really have a name, and can transpose into all sorts of named openings. The more interesting ones would come after 1.d4 d6 2.e4 in the various Modern defenses.

1.Nf3 sometimes signals the Reti but here again it could turn into any number of named openings. MikeLeahyAtBookup (talk) 17:59, 25 April 2008 (UTC)Reply
