The Sicilian Defence is the most popular reply to 1 e4. With 1...c5
Black comes out fighting, immediately challenging any sense of a
"natural white advantage". Sicilian Defence players are often very
well prepared theoretically and the tremendous dynamism of the
Sicilian can often disturb their opponents. In this book, German
FIDE master Jonas Hacker provides a complete repertoire for White
when facing the Sicilian. The recommended systems are based on
solid strategic considerations. 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. In Opening Repertoire: Beating the Sicilian,
Jonas Hacker guides the reader through the complexities of the
Sicilian and carves out a repertoire for White. He examines all
aspects of this highly complex opening and provides the reader with
well-researched, fresh, and innovative analysis. Each annotated
game has valuable lessons on how to play the opening and contains
instructive commentary on typical middlegame plans. * A complete
repertoire for White against the Sicilian. * A question and answer
approach provides an excellent study method
