Counter Black
In chess how can i counter attack the queens gambit and they ruy lopez and how can black get ina good position?

Well im going to chess camp (Im 12 and my rating is 1043) I play against kids my around my age and rating 900-1370, i noticed that alot of them do the queens gambit and the ruy lopez. How can black counter attack those 2 openings and destroy white or put black in a good position?

Answers vary and are based on your taste. Against the Queen’s gambit I used to use the Dutch defense. I can’t recommend that except as an occasional thing. If it becomes known that you play the Dutch, people will suddenly play very well against it, and Bad Bishops are not very fun.:) (Look into the dutch and you’ll see the bad bishop problem.)
I switched to the Tchigorin (everyone and their dog uses one of the Indians – King’s, Queen’s, and Nimzo) Giving up a Bishop for a knight is easier to do if you are used to having a bad bishop.:) (Tchigorin thought knights were better than bishops – it is vice versa, but not by much.)

Against the Ruy, look up “the Petrov” or “the Russian Defense.” Again, based on your taste, you might want to look into the French, Caro-Cann, Sicilian, Alekhine, Center-Counter or Pirc. Other things (like the Nimzovitch – 1e4 Nc6 2d4 and white obtains his opening objective – are essentially curiosities that turn into a bad Pirc is they hold any hope.)

Or if you are absolutely insane try the Latvian Gambit -1e4 e5 2Nf3 f5.:) Just kidding.
