Feb-08-11		Salaskan: I face such nonsense (treating the Sicilian like an open game) from my opponents all the time, if only I could punish it like Kasparov!

Feb-08-11		blueofnoon: Of course no one can play like Kasparov, but the plan he essayed in the opening is fairly easy to understand. I play sicilian a lot with black myself, and whenever my opponent avoids open sicilian I have an easier game.

Apr-10-11		HAPERSAUD: non mainline sicilian players are just cowards

Apr-11-11		Shams: <HAPERSAUD> Silly comment. You expect Tiviakov to just walk into Garry's Najdorf preparation?

Jun-26-11		Chris00nj: <HAPERSAUD: non mainline sicilian players are just cowards> We're not cowards, we are trying to get a reasonable position and attacking chances without having to learn tons and tons and tons of lines.

Mar-05-12		screwdriver: A nice material imbalance occurs with Kasparov capitalizing.

Mar-26-12		hotwax: 35. ... h5 How do you come up with that? It looks so wrong, yet works out so fine...

Nov-05-12		timothee3331: <we are trying to get a reasonable position and attacking chances without having to learn tons and tons> Sorry, isn't that the exact definition of cowards ?! Half kiddin' ;)

Dec-25-12		HAPERSAUD: ether way the result was the same
