		Sam Collins' bias towards White For quite some time now I have been having the feeling that Sam Collins, in his updates for the Anti-Sicilian section, has a rather strong – and hence, in my view, unjustified – bias towards White. Hi... Started 06/21/17 at 10:57:58 by Pessoa « Pages 1 2 all »	16	1145	06/27/17 at 19:21:13 By: ReneDescartes
		The Modern Anti Sicilan book by Sergei Soloviov I'm curious on any thoughts about this title. This is a thick theory book at more than 500 pages on 1.e4 c5 2.a3!? discussing various tries by Black to refute the a3 variation. Kotronias in his anti S...

		Sneaking Into the g3 Sicilian With 2.Nc3 & 3.Nge2 I like the idea of being able to play g3 against all the Sicilian variations but against the Kaslashnikov and the Sveshnikov Black can play this ...e5 move and change the nature of the game. So I figu... Started 02/13/17 at 19:50:44 by SouthofGrey	8	743	02/14/17 at 20:10:37 By: ErictheRed
		Sveshnikov vs. the Anti-Sicilians At page 8 we see a diagram... and it's the position after 1.e4... c6 (!), instead of the Sicilian. I think it's an unforgivable printing blunder. (No, it's not a short section on the Caro-Kann, in som... Started 07/09/16 at 08:00:56 by grandpatzer	1	900	07/09/16 at 12:02:06 By: Stigma
		Best book on the Anti-Sicilians for Black? Considering that it's increasingly more difficult to play the Open Sicilian with Black (at least from my experience), what is in your opinion the best book on the Anti-Sicilians for the Black player? ...

		Thanks GM Dave Smerdon! I'm very sorry to see your announcement that you will no longer be doing the Anti-Sicilian section for Chess Publishing as you "retire" from active chess to focus on your career.  Your writing style h...

		Beating the Anti-Sicilians by Gallagher Does anybody know if the repertoire choices in this book are still "valid" (I don't know a better English word) compared to the books by Rogozenko, Palliser and Kotronias? And could somebody mayb... Started 03/07/16 at 16:54:04 by TD	3	1195	03/19/16 at 22:58:40 By: ChevyBanginStyle

		Move 3 alternatives? Hi all, I been wondering, vs the sicilian, after e4 c5, nf3, the based on blacks reply, play either the delayed wing gambit, Smith morra, c3, or maybe bb5. Is it a decent idea? Based on what blac... Started 01/13/16 at 16:06:06 by Mtal	5	1148	01/14/16 at 09:54:03 By: chk

		Non-delayed wing gambit? What is the point of playing 2.b4 rather than 2.Nf3 and 3.b4? 2.b4 allows this d5 stuff. The only thing that I can think of that 2.b4 avoids is 2...g6. Is there something else? Started 07/14/15 at 15:43:08 by gauss	4	1638	07/23/15 at 18:19:11 By: gauss
		1. e4 c5 2. Sf3 e6 3. g3 a6 This 3. g3 is getting popular, and I was thinking about how a Kan player who is also a Najdorf player can exploit this for an advantage.
