SynopsisPlay real chess instead of trying to memorize endless database lines! That is what the Rossolimo Sicilian offers and why this opening has become so popular with chess players all over the world. If you play 3. b5 in the Sicilian, you do not need to keep up-to-date with the dazzling theoretical developments in all kinds of Open Sicilians, You can sidestep theory, play your own creative game - and still put your opponent in trouble! Victor Bologan focuses on opening lines he learned from his trainer Viacheslav Chebanenko in his youth in Moldavia. Chebanenko's original analyses formed the solid basis for a lot of new and ground-breaking work that Bologan has done for this opening-in practical play, but also in training sessions with Garry Kasparov. Bologan does not tire the reader with dry variations. His verbal explanations are smooth, clear, and often humorous. He recounts the history of the line and provides a short but colourful biography of its originator, the legendary grandmaster Nicholas Rossolimo. Book jacket., The Rossolimo Variation is the most popular and successful Anti-Sicilian weapon around today. It is being used by top players like Ivanchuk, Adams, Svidler and Grischuk, as well as by thousands of amateurs all over the world. If you play the Rossolimo you do not need to keep up-to-date with the dazzling theoretical developments in the Open Sicilian and you will get a position in which playing is more important than remembering specific variations. Victor Bologan, one of the strongest grandmasters in the world, presents a complete and durable scheme in which aggressive Sicilian players will be denied any initiative, while White dominates in a position full of strategic ideas and nuances.
