The Ideal Opening For Ambitious Players
Who Want To Play It Safe
If
staying solid and
winning with Black are high on your list of priorities, then you'll love our brand new starter kit based on one of
Grandmaster Pentala Harikrishna's best weapons, the Taimanov Sicilian.
The plan is simple:
Meet White's 1.e4 with 1...c5 2.Nf3 e6 to fortify the light-squares, then follow up with ...Nc6 and ...Qc7 to cover the dark squares.
With this combat-ready setup, you'll be ready to...
Repel Enemy Aggression
And Take Over The Initiative!
This Sicilian combines a sparkling theoretical reputation and a flawless structure with plenty of counter-punching potential.
Elite GMs Caruana, Shankland, and Harikrishna
swear by the Taimanov Sicilian...but you don't have to be a top player to start playing it.
Unlike ultra-sharp variations that demand memorizing long "computer" lines, strategic understanding can go a long way in the Taimanov Sicilian. And with this free course right before you, learning the opening just got
easier.
