Opening Repertoire: Beating The Sicilian Main Lines Hacker Jonas
The Sicilian Defence is the most popular reply to 1 e4. Sicilian Defence players are often very well prepared theoretically and the tremendous dynamism of the Sicilian can often disturb their opponents. With 1...c5 Black comes out fighting, immediately challenging any sense of a "natural white advantage".
The recommended systems are based on solid strategic considerations. In this book, German FIDE master Jonas Hacker provides a complete repertoire for White when facing the Sicilian. The backbone of the repertoire is the line 1 e4 c5 2 Nf3 d6 3 d4 cxd4 4 Nxd4 Nf6 5 f3 ?
This is a perfect line to throw Najdorf and Dragon players off their stride. White will (usually) follow up with c2-c4 and establish a useful space advantage. Many of the other recommended lines are also based around the space-gaining c2-c4 advance providing cohesion across the whole repertoire.
