🔹 Wing Gambit, Sicilian Defense - • Powerful Chess Opening...
♛ Find the Accelerated Dragon variations shown in the video in this blog-post - chess-teacher.com/accelerated...
If you consider former world chess champions like Fischer, Anand, and Kasparov, they all share a common preference: the Sicilian Defense as Black. Renowned for its solidity and aggression, the Sicilian Defense is a favorite among top chess players.
In this video lesson, GM Igor Smirnov introduces the Accelerated Dragon Variation of the Sicilian Defense. This variation typically arises after the moves: 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 g6. By playing g6 early, before d7-d6, Black can execute d7-d5 directly without losing a move.
The Accelerated Dragon is both solid and aggressive, proving effective up to the level of FIDE Masters (approximately 2200-2300 ELO). Additionally, it comes with a lot of deadly traps.

Good day! Coach GM Smirnov, I'd like to ask is this a book or a video lesson?
I can't wait until "This is completely winning" means that I'll actually win the game 😂
Another sicilian defence guide! Keep it coming Igor 🎉❤❤
❤
This opening and the hyper accelerated dragon are my favourites, I have played them for many years. Thanks for the great video. All the best Joseph

I ❤ chess. Thanks for taking the time to make these videos
Glad you enjoy it!
I loved your that ruy lopez trap that also traps 2800 can you make more like this
Will you also cover the Sicilian Najdorf at some point? As it is the most popular and theoretically best variation of the Sicilian defense.
You made this look so easy. Now I'm gonna add Sicilian to my toolbox as well. Thanks ❤
❤
Please do tutorial on the Timanov variation 🙏
I can’t play as this but I believe you!
Noice, I just played a 3 day game, Sicilian as black! 👍
great video but the maroczy bind was skipped
Interesting version
0:26 The actual joke is when you've seen his videos explaining how the Bc4 line is good and a weapon against the Sicillian
And here, He himself starts thrashing it LOL😂
Can you please explain, after ...Nf6, which variation would be better if white plays c4 (instead of d4 as shown) protecting the pawn on d5?
make a video about sicilian kan variation please please please
Niceee
How about dealing with Rossolimo attack?
Bro can you make a guide on English opening
Igor: Can you please do a video on the cow opening.
This is my secret weapon when i play lower rated players😅
The fact that I played against a 1976 elo player who played this exact move 1:27
It was a 3 minutes blitz though, so I get it
NO I DON'T 😂
I play this opening a lot and I see tons of players forget that their knight is hanging 😅
1:54 I'm seeing myself in the future blundering my queen at least once at this position for sure in a blitz match.
Diagonal-[даягонал]
In the position at 5:18 after you play Nf6, white should just play e5, which threatens the Knight and opens the queen's attack on the c6 pawn. You could easily proceed with dxe5, Qxc6+, Bd7, Qf5. White has a more favorable position now. even if black castles kingside, his queenside is wrecked. Therefore, instead of Nf6, shouldn't black simply play e7? Am I missing something obvious? Anyone see a better line?
Best grandmaster
I am an accelerated dragon player. The only thing I don't love is the Maroczy Bind. I find it too hard to play it as Black.
The bind structure is useful if you played d6 and Nf6 at the very beginning. If u didn't, its waste of time for white and you can develop faster
Does it work against the D4 opening?
No lol study the kings Indian or Dutch defense
No d4 is completely different line
😮
I never understood how to play the Sicilian. All I know is the bishop can't be seated on c5.
My life is easier by playing the Dragon Counterattack.😎
I can't wait to play it to demolish every player.😏
I can guarantee none of my 900 opponents play any of those moves.
But what the hell I'll give it a go, but only because I own a pet Dragon.
Not the bearded types, the real game of thrones type. My neighbour hates it but it keeps the cats off my lawn and I can light my BBQ in seconds.
Well, if you don't cover the maroczy bind, how are we suppose to play the accelerated dragon? it is the most difficult variation to meet! Bye.
lol it’s a crash course dude chill
accelerate dragon maybe not a good opening. according to engine best move. it’s even cannot set up dragon style successfully.
I wouldn’t worry so much about engine valuations until you get to play grandmasters etc
