Kramnik Sicilian
There is no treatment of the Kramnik-line of the e6 sicilian in the commented games. Is there any book giving a useful review for a player around 2000 who never played 1.c4 himself and doesn't know mu...

Which road to the Sveshnikov ?
We have two ways to reach the Sveshnikov (I am excluding routes via Kalashnikov and maybe Taimanov).
1. The "official" move order for the Sveshnikov. 2. Via the Sicilian 4-knights move order... Started 10/27/19 at 03:11:13 by Bogojump |

Kalashnikow DWD by Nicholas Pert
Well that was surprise, another Sicilian DWD but this time another system with ...e5:
https://shop.chessbase.com/de/products/pert_the_kalashnikov_sicilian 00: Introduction [06:58] Sideline... My personal opinion is that I slightly prefer L'Ami as presenter compared to Pert, but both are fine still. In any case, I have not seen any material, neither book nor database nor DWD, about Kalashnikow since the Everyman book. But that book was several years ago.

01: Introduction [04:00] Sidelines 01: Rare Moves - 6.Nf5/Nxc6/Nf3/Nb3 - Video notation [11:14] 02: 6.Nde2 Bc5 - ... Looks interesting, and author is good. L'Ami should write books too, not sure why he only does DWDs. Started 07/03/19 at 07:35:45 by Leon_Trotsky |

No more open sicilians?
Dear friends, I have seen a lo of antisicilians among very strong players around 2700. Can we conclude that the open sicilian is too risky for white? Caruana only plays Ragozin against Carlsen... perh...
