The Modernized Grivas Sicilian - Paperback

by Grivas (Author)

The Sicilian Defense is an opening that commences with the moves 1.e4 c5. The
Sicilian Defense is the most popular and best-scoring response to White's first
move 1.e4. For example, 1.d4, is a statistically more successful opening for
White because of the high success rate of the Sicilian Defense against 1.e4.

The Sicilian is Black's most dynamic, asymmetrical reply to 1.P-K4. It produces the
psychological and tension factors which denote the best in modern play and
gives notice of a fierce fight on the very first move.'

The Modernized Grivas Sicilian is an unique variation within the Sicilian developed by Grandmaster Grivas, the reason why it has his name.
