The Sicilian Defence is by far the most popular chess opening. If you play 1 e4 as White, on average you are likely to meet the Sicilian in virtually every other game! You need to be prepared to face the Sicilian at all times, and a ready-to-use repertoire against it is an indispensible weapon. In this book, Gawain Jones confronts the challenge of meeting the Sicilian head on. He builds an Anti-Sicilian repertoire for White based on lines he has successfully employed at grandmaster level. These are sound, reliable options but they also contain more than a drop of poison. Variations covered include the highly popular King's Indian Attack and various Bb5 systems. *A Grandmaster's repertoire against the Sicilian *Highlights key tactical and positional ideas for both sides *Ideal for improvers, and club and tournament players
