The Shining Sveshnikov Sicilian
Always wanted to play like a World Champion? Search no further! With Magnus Carlsen using the Sveshnikov variation as his weapon of choice in the World Championship match against Fabiano Caruana, this DVD could not be better timed.
Since Jorden van Foreest is staying at my place during the Dutch Championship, I'm of course paying extra attention to the games of our national championship. At the time of writing the third round is being played and I already saw some cool sacrifices. Tonight I'll give an update.
