I have been playing Sicilian for quite sometime now and just learned this by playing here in queenalice.

While I have no reading on this, nor have any readings on the anti-sicilian openings for white, can someone advise what you think are the best lines that can be carried out in using the Sicilian and if I am white how can I break it...

I read some articles on the Yugoslav attack and just heard of the Dragon accelerated but really don't have a thorough understanding of these lines.

GO ahead... shoot your ideas. (A diagram can also be helpful :-D )

Thanks

Good stuff here --> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sicilian_Defence

I like the Dragon/Youguslav...There are some beautifull games on this line.

For sicilian games I suggest you learn the classical, Dragon and Najdorf lines...

For anti-sicilian I like the Morra Gambit... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smith-Morra_Gambit
The C3 system (Alapin) is also a good choice against sicilian...



:-D

i would like to post a link to a site that discusses chess openings in a very interactive way, complete with explanations and stuff. it's not a chess playing site, so i don't think it would be a competition over this site. but still, can i get your nod on this, miguel? thanks

Alib, how can you ask? After trying to beat you for over a year, I finally won ONE game: My (modified) KIA beat your Sicilian. ;-)

Of course, I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for it to happen again...
