Play the above Opening Chess Moves with White and Black, if possible. But use the Evans Gambit and the Kings Gambit just as a surprise weapon, because those Opening Chess Moves are very aggressive and should be studied well before you apply them. If you have the black pieces and your opponent plays first move e4, try to set up the Italian position as black. This means that your black bishop should be on c5 (attacking f2) and your knights are placed on c6 and f6. This is a good and solid setup for Black. If White plays the Scotch, then you still can play Bc5 later on in some variations. Make sure you get your pieces out fast to be able to castle on time.  Increase Your IQ (Intelligence Quotient) This will help you to beat job assessment tests! For BlackIf you play 1...e5 as Black, you should know how to play the right setup against White's different opening lines. To cover all that knowledge I recommend Play the open games as Black by GM John Emms.
For WhiteIf Black plays not e5 but something else... If you have the white pieces and start with 1.e4 and Black does not answer 1..e5 this is no problem as he must play a system, right? And you can study all the systems that are available to the black pieces.After some time you will know how to handle each system that is known unto man. There are different opening systems to be learned. But to penetrate deeper into the spirit of any particular chess openings you have to buy some good chess books/DVD's about the openings you like and begin to specialize. This saves time and effort. So, if Black plays not 1..e5 - so what, after a while you will know the system he has selected and you know the correct set up for white. You will be prepared. It takes time to learn all this but you will get there eventually, don't worry. Start with the Sicilian Defense and the French Defense, after you have studied first the open games above where black answers 1...e5. The Sicilian and French chess openings are very popular and occur quite often. Here you can study many games in detail. Just click on the link below under the image.
