Anti-Sicilian with 2.Nc3 a6 (Part 4)

Course 32 episodes
(2 hours 7 min)
Creators GM Avetik Grigoryan

Many players, especially those who play the Najdorf, might play 2...a6 against the Anti-Sicilian. They're happy to transpose to the Open variation. 

But instead, White has a powerful way to meet Black’s 2…a6 move, which is what you’ll learn in this course! 

Our Grandmasters will show you the drawback behind Black's 2nd move and recommend a repertoire that starts with 3.g3! ...

 

Below are some positions taken from the course:
