Concerning my strength: ELO: 2085, but I am better if I get out of the opening, I also drew an IM yesterday.
I would describe my strength like this:
Openings: 1700.
Positional Understanding & Endgame: 2100
Tactics: 2400
Looking at games in the KG, I am not anymore impressed by it,
indeed you have committed yourself to f4 too early, black being much more flexible can adapt very good to your setup, that is why I will go for the bishop game with nf3 in most variations.
The more I think what it is that really good players prefer Nf3 over Bc4 and why it is better, I come to the conclusion that it is actually flexibility, the knight has to be moved to Nf3 in almost all cases,
but the bishop could stand well on e2, d3, c4, b5 ... actually you commited yourself too early to c4 with the bishop ... but I will chose the BG now ... I see many GM's playing it and also winning against 2600 opposition ... although I'm not too sure if it is regularly played by them or only a surprise weapon ...
I have to investigate in this opening ... what makes me chose the BG is my current lazyness for theory and my state of being disillusionend by the petroff games I saw so far and also played myself 2 times otb ... well 1. ... e5 is just no sicilian
... but Bc4 still gives me interesting games ... it's not as good as e4 e5 Nf3 Nc6 Bb5, but not as boring as e4 e5 Nf3 Nf6 ...
btw, on openings, I come more & more to the conclusion that opening books are almost useless, only good for a brief intro into an opening ... fritz powerbook and megabase are a much better opening guide ...
