How to play against the Sicilian defence?
What's best Sicilian for White?
What is Rossolimo variation of the Sicilian defense?
What is Moscow variation of the Sicilian defense?
What's best for White against the Sicilian defense?
Best Sicilian for busy players...?
The video introduces an anti-Sicilian system - combining the Rossolimo & Moscow variation - as a solution for white, targeting beginner and intermediate level players. The system is widely known as "The Bb5 Sicilian".
The whole story is rooted in the basic opening principles (develop your pieces, castle and take space and center with your pawns), thus can be seen as one of the simplest solutions against the infamous Sicilian defence, known for plenty of variations and subvariations black is able to use against white after entering so called "Open Sicilian".
Since every move is related with the basic opening principles, it is something I'd like to recommend to the beginner and intermediate level players, those who shouldn't spend too much time on memorizing moves and ideas of a single opening.
Do not expect here to find all possible variations, but only those that I think players up to 1800 rating points would typically choose. However, I'd like to discuss further the issues you may find here, or difficulties you may experience while using the system recommended in the video.
