Surprising Your Opponents with the Lazy Sicilian

The Sicilian is known to be one of the most theory-heavy openings in chess, in which you cannot afford to be lazy and avoid learning lengthy lines. Have you ever encountered a variation in the Open Sicilian, which does not require spending hours on memorization and constantly worrying about your opponents’ theoretical novelties? If this sounds like something you would enjoy, “The Lazy Sicilian” (1. e4-c5 2. Nf3-e6 3. d4-cxd4 4. Nxd4-Bc5) might be an interesting option to add to your opening repertoire. In just 60 minutes, you will be well-equipped with a surprise weapon, which will take most of your opponents out of book right from the start.

Siciliana

1.e4 c5 are the moves which define the Sicilian Defence. Black fights for the d4-square, but unlike with the double move of the black e-pawn the symmetry is immediately destroyed and Black is indicating that he is not simply aiming to achieve equality. Then things can continue in quite different directions. 2.Nf3 followed by 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 leads to the Open Sicilian. But before that, Black has the option of laying down the direction in which the opening will go, according to whether he plays 2...d6, 2...e6 or 2...Nc6. But nowadays systems in which White does without an early d4 are also very popular.
