Standard Chess #75: IM Bartholomew vs. SharkAnto55 (Sicilian Defense)
In the spirit of yesterday's super sharp encounter with GM Koneru, here I venture 1.e4 and my opponent responds with the Sicilian Dragon. According to Amanov and Kavutskiy in "Modernized: The Open Sicilian" 9.0-0-0 is currently a better try for an advantage than 9.Bc4, so I opt for long castling. White can often emerge a pawn or exchange to the good in this line, but Black's counterplay cannot be underestimated!
