Sicilian Four Knights
Can we have a Cpub update on the Sicilian 4N please? Especially the critical line 6 Nxc6 bxc6 7 e5 Nd5 8 Ne4.

New Taimanov book by Markus, Perunovic & Ivanisevi
This one looks interesting!
http://thinkerspublishing.com/images/content/3.jpg The book on the Rauzer-Kozul looked very comprehensive, so I am very curious about this one. Started 11/20/15 at 07:54:41 by Konstriktor |

Four Knights, 7.Bf4.. 10 Nxa8 .. 11 Bb5
Hi,
one of the games commented by Hazai in the initial Sicilian batch was Drenchev-Manolov, Plovdiv 1999. In the game annotations Hazai views White´s chanses very optimistically. But ... Started 01/10/03 at 13:57:12 by Anders |

Good Line against the Kan

Paulsen / Kan 5.Bd3 Qc7!?

2...e6 3.d4 cd4 4.Nd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 Nc6 6.Nc6!?

Qg4 lines in Kan Sicilian

I was noticing that in the line 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 e6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 a6 5.Bd3 Bc5 6.Nb3 Be7 that 7.Qg4! is scoring quite well. For example, this recent game from the Russian Championship: [Ev... Started 12/05/04 at 13:31:19 by Seth_Xoma |
