@Paulcarrero That was an extremely useful video; it gave me a lot of useful information and ideas that I had not previously considered. I had considered the same Colle system and even the London system, as I started playing them I realized I was 'winning' more often; however I didn't know 'why' I was winning. So I dropped the systems and picked up the Queens Gambit instead.
You mention in the video you could make a video for the Italian Game. Stepping away from the Colle system; after 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4 it seems to me that your responding to your opponents move; 3. ... Nf6 4. Ng5, 3. ... Bc5 4. 0-0, 3. 3. ... f6, 4. d3 - each time the plan seems to change with the fight for the center either being necessary or unnecessary. The only common ground is the open castle file which changes from necessity 3. ... Bc5, to possibility 3. ... Nf6 4. Ng5 ...
It seems to me in open positions after something such as the fried liver attack that is defended well forcing a concession or retreat; the game becomes overly hectic and loose. How do you plan for such things?
