That sounds interesting, so far I haven't found anything against 7. ... de5:

To answer the OP's question: yes, Collins again doesn't give that move its due credit.

I'm sure that most people here are aware of it - but there is coverage of this line in the Everyman Dangerous Weapons Anti-sicilians title. I believe that Peter Wells wrote that chapter, but it could have been Richard Palliser ...

I believe I have found a way to a stable edge for White - but established theory and indeed the Sveshnikov mega-tome do not convince for White.

In has past efforts Collins has brushed over this important continuation,

Surprising given a quote from Chandler's 1987 book:

"this may be just as good"
This neglect seems to be a not so nice feature of many repertoire books (and DVD's).
  
The book had the effect good books usually have: it made the stupids more stupid, the intelligent more intelligent and the other thousands of readers remained unchanged.

Does Sam Collins analyse the following important line on his new DVD:

1.e4 c5 2.c3 Nf6 3.e5 Nd5 4.d4 cd4 5.Nf3 Nc6 6.cxd4 d6 7.Bc4 dxe5!?

In has past efforts Collins has brushed over this important continuation, despite it being of integral importance to the viability of his proposed repertoire. Now that he is working for chesspublishing.com it is hoped that he will rectify this. 

Thoughts welcome.
