3) c3 variation
Delaying c3 on the third move in the sicilian opening gave me some opportunities to surprise my opponents .

A request for next update

I first became aware of you when I bought your book, "The Seven Deadly Chess Sins". It was a very thought-provoking read and for a player who was in the 1600 to 1700s (USC... Started 04/09/05 at 16:18:30 by Seth_Xoma |

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...

Re: What about a flirt with a Dragón?
on 06/02/14 at 19:07:20:
This is especially important because THE main Anti-Sicilian line (3 Bb5) just doesn't work against 2...e6, so you'll see a lot of 3 c3. In his game against Judit Polgar in the London Classic of ... Started 06/03/14 at 22:47:00 by RdC |

King's indian atack
I want to ask which is the best defense to King's indian attack.
Is the c5-d6-e5 formation with Nge7 and g6- Bg7 a good choice? Started 04/27/10 at 10:58:08 by dimis (Ex Member) |

closed/Grand Priz
Hi all,
As a Najdorf player how should one tackle the Grand Priz and the closed?? If I play an early d6 then Grand Priz is good. If I play a6 then I think a6 is a pointless move in the closed.<... Started 07/19/09 at 04:08:14 by Zatara |

2b3 a rating
Hi all,
How does 2.b3 rate as far as a Anti-Sicilian? Meaning is it better than Grand priz attack or the c3 sicilian?? Any thoughts would be appreciated!! Thanks, Zatara Started 02/15/09 at 06:42:09 by Zatara |

'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...

2...g6 for players of Bb5 systems
For those who play Bb5 systems, what is a good answer to
1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 g6 ? Let's assume White doesn't want to enter the main lines of the Accelerated Dragon. Would 3.c3 work? Started 01/24/06 at 23:51:02 by DrFractal |
