Play for a Win with 5.f3!

 Are you looking for a way to outwit theory-sharks in the Open Sicilian? Then this may just be the book for you. The concept is simple: surprise your opponent with 5.f3, build up a strong pawn centre, avoid all of Black’s main lines and steamroll his Sicilian!

 Experienced grandmaster Sergey Kasparov presents a complete repertoire for White which has all the right features for ambitious and creative chess players:

      • it’s an early deviation
      • still fairly unknown
      • in a widely played opening
      • which guarantees solid play
      • with lots of opportunities to unbalance your opponent
      • offering a wealth of novelties and new ideas

 Sergey Kasparov has made a thorough and detailed study of this variation, which he himself has played for many years. He presents all the ins and outs in his usual lively and instructive style: both Black’s solid and sharp replies, and also the attempt to avoid 5.f3 by an early 3…Nf6!?.
