Former world #3 and four-time Dutch Champion Grandmaster Anish Giri returns to Chessable. If you don't know it yet, people love how he brings super-GM openings within the reach of "everyday" players.This time, GM Giri shows how you can turn up the heat against 1.e4, and enjoy dynamic winning chances game after game.In Lifetime Repertoires: Sicilian Dragon, after 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3, you play the dark-squared bishop to its best square with 5...g6, and 6...Bg7.With your Dragon-bishop spitting fire along the a1-h8 diagonal, you're always ready to...Launch A Fiery Counterattack.
And Chase The FULL Point Whatever White Plays.The Sicilian Dragon is notoriously ambitious, just like the mythical creature it took inspiration from.Your spring-loaded structure and hyper-active pieces (especially that g7-bishop) give you plenty of firepower against anything White plays. If the first player isn't careful, they may soon find their king burned to a crisp!Make no mistake:This repertoire's "take no prisoners" strategy means you will reach those razor-sharp positions, where both sides must play "only moves" for dozens of turns...But that's why you'll love having Anish as your opening coach.With his trademark witty and down-to-earth teaching style, GM Giri delivers just the right mix of cutting-edge analysis and practical guides for players of all levels.Case in point: Against the critical 9. O-O-O in the Yugoslav Attack, most theoreticians lament that Black's best chance is to grovel for a draw...but GM Giri isn't "most theoreticians." In the course, he revitalizes an idea from the 70's which denies White of easy exchanges and keeps your queenside attack burning.Best part?Anish serves his super-GM lines with over 10 hours of video instruction, which zero in on the ideas and strategies behind the moves.So when game time comes, you know exactly which moves to play... the right time to play them... and how to deliver the knockout blow.Lifetime Repertoires: Sicilian Dragon also covers other major systems, such as the:
Classical System with 6.Be2.
Fianchetto System with 6.g3.
Levenfish System with 6.f4.
Positional System with 6.Bc4.
And the odd but playable 6.h3.But as any club player will tell you:Games between non-masters head for anti-Sicilians, 9 times out of 10.So if you want to play 1...c5 successfully, you better be ready for these "not so popular but still venomous" lines.Anish knows this all too well. That's why in Lifetime Repertoires: Sicilian Dragon, he takes on these sidelines by the horns in seven info-packed chapters. Here are some of the "anti-anti-Sicilian" strategies you'll pick up from the course:A quiet rook sacrifice against the Alapin. After which, White must scramble for equality...or the sitting duck on e1 won't survive the firestorm.Delayed castling strategy against the Closed Sicilian. So you can secure a HUGE space advantage on the queenside, and deny the first player of targets on the kingside.A light-square barricade against the Grand Prix Attack. Shut down the bishop on c4 with your pawns. "Kill" White's attack before it starts. And dominate the center of the board.PLUS, you also get move-by-move guides to taking out even rarer second- and third-move sidelines...making this course a complete repertoire against 1.e4.Chess is a lot more fun and satisfying when you can reach explosive positions you love on demand. Even more so when you can crown your strong opening play with a winning attack.But don't take our word for it. See for yourself when you...Take Up The Sicilian Dragon Today And.
