Magnus Carlsen demonstrates his skill in evading sharp theoretical lines while still obtaining positions that allow him to pressure his opponents. It's intriguing to observe how Carlsen has played against the Sicilian recently. With 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.Bb5+, he bypasses the Najdorf and the Dragon, and against 2…e6, he employs 3.g3, the focus of this 60-minute DVD. Initially, 3.g3 appears innocuous and seems to transpose into a passive Closed Sicilian line, but White has numerous opportunities to complicate the game and force Black to solve problems: 1) He can play an enhanced King's Indian Attack and intensify the position with Qe2 and c2-c4. 2) He can attempt to undermine Black's central pawn structure with 3...d5 4.exd5 exd5 5.d4. 3) He can build a wide center with c2-c3 and d2-d4. These options illustrate why this variation is perilous and why top players like Carlsen and Adams continue to triumph with it. You too can achieve the same. FIDE Senior Trainer and IM Andrew Martin has extensively recorded for ChessBase.
