Can anyone help me with sourcing info on the "Big Clamp"?

'Experts vs' the Nimzowitsch Variation
Looking at Jacob Aagaard's line against the Nimzowitsch in Experts vs the Sicilian I came across a position that looked quite dodgy for White! After 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 Nf6 he recommends 3. Nc3 d5 4. exd5...

1 e4 c5 2 e5 Sicilian
Hello all,
Does anyone know anything about 2 e5 against the Sicilian Defense? I tried it on ICC, and it seems to work. Also, there is a master at the Marshall Chess Club, Yefim Treger, who plays ... Started 09/17/07 at 14:26:20 by Gambit « Pages 1 2 all » |

1 e4 c5 2 Bc4
Everybody laughs at this line, myself included (does it even have a name?). But in Marin's book 1 c4 e5, he calls the line 2 g3 Nf6 3 Nc3 Nc6 4 Bg2 Bc5 the Karpov variation (is this standard?) and cla...

1 e4 c5 2 Nf3 g6
Is there any way White can gain an advantage after 1 e4 c5 2 Nf3 g6 without going into the Open Sicilian, 3 d4 cxd4 4 Nxd4? The main alternatives are 3 d4 cxd4 4 Qxd4, 3 c3, and 3 Bc4 (3 Nc3 and 3 c4 ...

1. e4 c5 2. Bc4...now what?
I have been encountering this quite a bit. I don't have any sicilian books, but I have yet to find a reference to this on a website. Anyone have any good theory to this?

1. e4 c5 2. d4 cxd4 3. Nf3 Move order issues

If white plays both the open sicilian and the morra, can he freely choose the one or the other no matter black's reply on move 3? Is there some drawback to this move... Started 05/01/11 at 20:36:05 by Highfive |

1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 e6 3. b3
I set up a topic on what to do against 2...e6, and alumbrado recommended 3. b3 'and Black should be OK' Well I think White is doing well after 3. b3. After something like 3...d6 4. Bb2 Nc6 5. d4 cd 6....

I have started playing this line as White and using it primarily to avoid the Sveshnikov. I am fine with 3...e5, e6, d6, and Nf6 but am curious what to do against 3...g6. 4. d4 leads to an accelerated...

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. Even if the Kan player is no Najdorf player, if s/he is willing...
