Kasparov, Steamrolling the Sicilian

Are you looking for a way to outwit theory-sharks in the Open Sicilian Then this may just be the book for you. The concept is simple: surprise your opponent with 5.f3, build up a strong pawn centre, avoid all of Black s main lines and steamroll his Sicilian!

Experienced grandmaster Sergey Kasparov presents a complete repertoire for White which has all the right features for ambitious and creative chess players:

it s an early deviation
still fairly unknown
in a widely played opening
which guarantees solid play
with lots of opportunities to unbalance your opponent
offering a wealth of novelties and new ideas

Sergey Kasparov has made a thorough and detailed study of this variation, which he himself has played for many years. He presents all the ins and outs in his usual lively and instructive style: both Black s solid and sharp replies, and also the attempt to avoid 5.f3 by an early 3...Nf6! .

International Grandmaster Sergey Kasparov (1968) was born in Baku, Azerbaijan, and now lives in Belarus. He has won many tournaments throughout the world and is a renowned chess opening expert.
