I find Scotch game irritating to face. I feel like the lines people play are always identical and it's difficult imo to get anything as Black... just hoping for an endgame a lot of the time where you have 2 nice centre pawns, but weaknesses on the Queenside.
Anti Benoni lines are also a world of hurt to me.
The Sokolsky/Orangutan/Polish opening. - 1.b4 :]
@MeWantCookieMobile Oh, do we know each other?! Very sorry that I dont remember you :<
Thanks for your responce and for the explanation - you dont owe an excuse here - it is your right and choice whom to play and whom to block. Nothing wrong with that if you consider Englund-Gambit as a time-waste for yourself and refrain from taking free points. I havent assumed anything about you, you brought that gambit into the topic and I have responded in general there :)

Exactly THAT variation! LOL How did you know?
@Funkmaus you would have known me as Nemisis back in the day. Not sure you would remember that.

Interesting, thanks for the info
@TriangelI find the Wayward Queen (Parham Attack) very annoying. I am also somewhat annoyed by the Scandinavian and any other opening where the opponent is swinging wild haymakers with their queen in the opening moves.
i hate the philidor. i have no idea how to really do anything to it, but it (the philidor) doesn't seem to help my opponent much either... it just seems boring, and, well, you have to move dem pawns somewhere.........................
and the ones where my opponent fianchettoes each bishop immediately. wtf???? this often disturbs me so much that i lose, lol.
and four knights and italian games are only for bore-fests.............................................
