This two-volume course presents a complete repertoire for Black after 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 g6 - the Hyper-Accelerated Dragon. In recent years, this dynamic line has grown significantly in popularity, with several of the world’s top players adding it to their repertoires.
This variation has two main advantages for black, he does not have to face the Rossolimo or Moscower Variation after 3.Bb5 and in many lines he can play d5 in one go and save a tempo. But in this second volume the most common Anti-Sicilians are tackled, this is very important for club players as the Anti-Sicilians are often played to avoid Open Sicilian Theory.
Against the Alapin we will strike with d5, fight for the d4 square and often reach an isolated queen's pawn position with long term strategic chances, compared to other Sicilian move orders we can make use of the manoeuvre Nh6-Nf5. If white opts for the Closed Sicilian with g3 or the Grand Prix Attack we will focus on making our g7 bishop the star of the show and attack white queenside.
