Repertorio pragmatico - Difesa Siciliana con 2...e6 - parte 2

With this video, we continue building our White repertoire. Today, we tackle the Sicilian Defense in its 2...e6 incarnation. My proposal is to tackle it with the delayed Alapin, playing 3 c3 and aiming for pawn structures similar to the advanced French variation. In this video, we'll see what happens if Black responds with 3...d5 (while in the first part, we looked at what happens after 3...Nf6). You can find the PGN file with the variations shown in the video at the following link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1AEQE... 00:00 Introduction 00:55 - 3 c3 d5 - Difference with Alapin 01:39 - 3 c3 d5 4 e5 02:17 - 3 c3 d5 4 e5 d4 03:03 - 3 c3 d5 4 e5 d4 5 d3 04:31 - Variation 5...Bd7 09:03 - Variation 5...Nc6 10:02 - 9 0-0 - White sacrifices the Pe5 15:20 - 9 Na3 - White defends the Pe5 24:29 - 3 c3 d5 Summary #################################### Dear friends, the book dedicated to the Belgrade Gambit, a cornerstone of the pragmatic repertoire, has been released!
