rare Sicilian Variation vs Fide Chess Master

  • I never play the Sicilian Defense, but when I do, it's a lazy variation to avoid all the theory and sharp positions. In this game, I was lucky to get my opponent, FM Donald Johnson, out of his elements; and being ahead on the clock gave me an edge. Hope you find some value in it.

    PLEASE PLEASE make an opening for White. I have your "Counterblow - A Complete Fighting Repertoire" for Black and it has seriously changed my Black strategy and my win rate has really went up. I know you say it can be played for White as well, but I just can't 'transpose' the lines in my head while playing White. And I see lines that come up for W v B that I don't see when I am playing Black such as the French. Other King's Indian Defense courses just aren't as clear cut and well put together as yours. I truly hope you will consider releasing one!

    May I ask - how did you prepare the Nimzo Sicilian, if you haven’t played it much?
    If you have a secret account where you’ve played it x500, then obvs not much prep would be required.
    With your deep chess knowledge, you may have felt comfortable playing a defence that’s new to you.

    Great game, I don't know why he got the queen. I did not see how he could have promoted because the knight could have always been sacrificed if necessary. I would have taken the 3 pawns in the middle of the game for the knight. Not sure if that is a good move or not but that is definitely my playing style. I thought at the very end he was going to make you promote and finish it completely off.

      Its an FM. He was under time pressure. He did not insult Robert in any way and does not have to consult with him thoroughly after the game. Its okay he was slightly disappointed after the game but he did not convey any of that negative energy on to Robert. I think you should mind your business before saying anyone needs coaching. Maybe blitz isnt his forte?
