In this video course, twenty-nine examples with multiple questions are presented in the interactive format, which is ideal for a range of playing strengths. Step by step you will be taken through the complex positions.
I have a look at the Nimzowitsch Variation of the Sicilian (2...Nf6), which was tested in a recent game between Fabiano Caruana and Aleksandr Rakhmanov. The Russian player is an absolute specialist of this system, which doesn’t have a great reputation since Black usually ends up in a somewhat cramped position.
However, by analysing a few of his games, we learn about Black’s objectives and how things could easily go wrong for White as well. This time, however, he horribly blundered and Caruana immediately punished him. Can you see how?
