The flexible Taimanov Sicilian + A Complete Guide for Black against the Anti-Sicilian
Looking for a realistic way to play for a win with Black against 1.e4 without taking unnecessary risks? The Taimanov Sicilian is a reliable system, and hence one of the best options out there!
Robert Ris: "I have a look at the spectacular 1st round game Christiansen-Lee from the match Norway-South Korea. In a 6.Bg5 Najdorf the players soon left theory behind and set the board on fire with some thematic sacrifices.
