Is there a video on this anti sicilian?
I seem to remember there was either a Foxy or Roman video on the following line in the sicilian. It is where white plays nc3 then bb5 (it might be after the moved nf3, nc3 then bb5). Well if there was...

Is 2.Nc3 Nc6 3.Bb5 simply a bit better for White?
Hello,
What are your opinions on this Anti-Sicilian (1.e4 c5 2.Nc3 Nc6 3.Bb5)? I have faced this variation a number of times, and lost horribly in nearly every game. There are a few books wh... Started 11/15/08 at 01:17:08 by TN |

1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 e6 4.b3 with interesting play. This can also occur after: 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 e6 3.b3 Nc6 4.Bb5 How effe... Started 06/06/05 at 01:48:48 by Arthur I (Guest) |

3.Bb5 Nd7 Moscow Modern Main Line
Hey guys,
I was thinking some of you may have done analysis on the Modern Main Line of the Moscow, with 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.Bb5 Nd7 4.0-0 a6 5.Bd3 Ngf6 6.Re1 b5 7.c4, and now 7...g5. I worked heav... Started 09/04/17 at 01:57:57 by TN |

Rossolimo 3...g6 4. Bxc6 bxc6 5. d4!?
I was thinking about switching back to playing ...Nc6 sicilians recently and am searching for a reliable response to the Rossolimo. I'm leaning toward 3...g6 for now, with the idea of meeting Bxc6 wit...

Rossolimo/3...e6,4.Bxc6
Hi,
I play 3..e6 agains the Rossolimo. In about every 3rd game I get 4.Bxc6 and I answer bxc6. I dont like the usual positional answer 5...Ne7, 6...Ng6 etc., too complicated play, too positi... Started 04/23/05 at 06:28:11 by vergo (Guest) |

Best material against 3. Bb5 (+)
Hi,
I'm searching some material against 3.Bb5 (+). Since I'm planning to play the classical, it doesn't matter if it's for 2...d6 or 2...Nc6. I've the Rogozenko, but I find the lines he give... Started 10/27/09 at 21:36:18 by Alluren |

e6!? In the 5. c4 Moscow line
I like playing the Moscow, but nearly everyone I play is playing a set-up with e6 after 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 d6 3. Bb5 Bd7 4. Bxd7 Qxd7 5. c4. I'm not able to find even a slight edge for White after Black ...

1.e4 c5 2.Nc3 Nc6 3.Bb5 Nd4 4.Bc4 ... a6!?
I played Vigorito's suggested 4...a6, not really knowing this variation. The first 10 moves ended with the same position as that in the e-book line.
I managed to draw with my 200+ graded opponen... Started 03/24/10 at 13:09:47 by TicklyTim |

Navigating the Rossolimo Tabiya
I had some questions on the position after 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 e6 4.0-0 Nge7, one of the critical positions of the entire Rossolimo complex:
a) Of White's main moves, 5.Re1, 5.b3, 5.Nc3 and 5... Started 02/22/10 at 12:43:40 by TN |

Moscow Variation
I play the 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.Bb5 Bd7 4.Bd7 Qd7 line against the Moscow, followed by e6, Be7 and 0-0. However, I always seem to either draw or lose. I feel that Black does not have enough winning chan...

Fed up with the Svesh
So I've decided to play 3.Bb5. After 3...g6, I'm undecided between 4.0-0 and 4.Bxc6. What do you guys think?

A Bb5 Moscow sicilian "trick".
Rather long time ago I played a 1-min game against GM Ulf Andersson on ICC and I used my little "Bb5 Moscow trick" against him.

Rossolimo: 3..Qb6

To get the Alapin tactical, is not so difficult. The closed Sicilian is for a Dutch-player not unwelcome, if you take a setup with e5+d6+c5+f5 it gets q... Started 01/01/05 at 08:00:51 by Dutch-Kalashnikov |
