I´ve not bought Anand 11 but a look at the index convinced me it was a bit high-maintenance. I might still be persuaded but I doubt it - the transposition to the Bc4 Dragon is another thing...

I am one of those players! I like 9.0-0-0 against the standard Dragon, and against the accelerated Dragon the Khalifman lines look a bit too work-intensive for me  I mean - how can an amateur be expected to maintain that repertoire? Its interesting stuff of course theoretically.

That leaves me thinking about playing the Maroczy myself as I have done before, even though I dont believe it gives White much and that Black is super-solid in the main-lines, at least its safe territory.

This is kind of a cop out, and borderline off topic, but one idea is to just simply not play the Maroczy Bind! You can play Nc3 without c4, and just play those lines in the Accelerated Dragon. Khalifman's coverage in "Opening for White According to Kramnik 11" should be good enough. 

OAK 3 does probably the best job on the Maroczy for white. People are looking for a step-by-step explanation of the plans, when that actually isn't too feasible.

That doesn't work well in the Maroczy, as it is all about precision in the move orders. The key to understanding those move orders is playing through the variations. You'll also come to understand the plans that way.

I meet the Maroczy as White. But I am an 1.d4-player, so there are some move order issues as well.

This is a thread I started but maybe at the wrong place,

Please recommend some books in addition to the Khalifman book.

Well this is apparently. Apparently ChessLive does not save all my games as I thought it did. As a result I do not have any nonblitz Maroczy games. Can someone instead give a master game(s) where white wins via some plan rather than black self destructing ( I have no problem against prematurely violent attempts)
I read Davies recommendation but my problem with it is if black doubles on the c file the c pawn is pinned and so I have two less defenders aiming at b5. This means a4 is essentially forced. But all Nc2 accomplishes is a restraint of black. Once the Nc2 moves away there will be a hole on b4 and I still don't see an active plan for white.
The main problem I have is that restraining black is not an option since it is impossible to stop b5, f5 and d5 indefinitely. I'm about expert strength and I have no problem with slow positional games (I also play the Catalan) but the foundation behind good positional chess is a good plan.

You might consider picking up "Experts vs. the Sicilian" and perusing Nielsen's chapter on the Accelerated Dragon. He recommends playing 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 g6 5.c4 Bg7 6.Nc2 because, without going into too much detail, "White would prefer either to keep all four minor pieces, or to exchange them all!" Since Black doesn't have to cooperate in exchanging all of the minor pieces off, it is easier just to try and keep them on. 

I've been having trouble against the accelerated dragon. I set up a Maroczy bind but have trouble finding an active plan. The games that give me the most trouble are those where black plays for b5 and if I play a4 a well placed piece on b4 tie me down enough that I can't initiate any sort of kingside attack. Also problematic are lines where black exchanges knights on d4. It seems 3 pieces are too few for black to be cramped. As a result I have trouble maintaining any sort of advantage even against weaker players. (Note I do wish to continue playing the Maroczy since I do not believe in white alternatives and I transpose into it as a solution in other openings.)
