In the 5...e6 l... Started 02/05/06 at 16:03:05 by dsanchez |

An interesting interpratation of the closed
So setting is Zurich 1953 and Smyslov sits across from Taimonov. What transgresses in the opening may seem a bit queer to some and a bit magical to others. Even though the game was a draw the opening ...

How to make a closed Sicilian tactical and open?
Hi,
I am a big fan of the Sicilian Kalashnikov (and vs. d4 the Dutch Leningrad), rated about 1850 Elo. Unfortunately going for my pet Kalashnikov has the risk of meeting a closed Sicilian (v... Started 12/08/04 at 12:34:56 by Dutch-Kalashnikov « Pages 1 2 all » |

Interesting Closed Variation 2. ... b6
Well, this game just ended as a draw, so I thought I'd bring forth yet another one of my crazy ideas.
In correspondence, against the Closed Sicilian, I tried b6 which seemed to bring a great posi... Started 12/21/03 at 18:13:08 by nexirae |

closed sicilian: 2..a6/2...e6
what you think is better to meet the closed sicilian: 2...a6 followed by 3...b5, Bb7, e6 and sooner or later, depending on whites setup, d5
or immediately 2..e6 and after 3.f4 or 3.g3 follow with... Started 04/21/05 at 06:42:35 by nuyance (Guest) « Pages 1 2 all » |

Closed Sicilian a Miles move
After 1.e4 c5 2.Nc3 Nc6 3.g3 g6 4.Bg2 Bg7 5.d3 d6 6.Be3 b5!? seems possible as played by Tony Miles, my question is if White plays the cautious 7.Qd2 (7.e5!? Qd7 or 7.e5!? Bb7 looks playable for Black...

1. e4 c5 2. Nc3 a6!? 3. ???
I think that I may take up the closed sicilian / grand prix attack against the sicilian until I'm good enough to really know what I'm doing against the open sicilian (probably 1700 plus rating?). In ...
