Queen's Pawn Opening
From Conservapedia
The Queen's Pawn Opening has long been one of the most popular chess opening moves by white pieces. It consists of moving the queen's pawn to advance to d4.
Common defenses by the black pieces include:
- King's Indian Defense
- Benoni Defense
- Grunfeld Defense
- Bogo-Indian Defense
- Slav Defense
- Dutch Defense
- Budapest Gambit
- Horwitz Defense
The Queen's Pawn Opening became popular because it avoids the Sicilian Defense increasingly used against the King's Pawn Opening.
