Reddit/chess decided that an "opening of the week" presentation would be a great way for everyone to improve their chess, and this week (Feb. 1st - 7th) will be mine, covering the Open Sicilian.

Follow the discussion here: www.reddit.com/r/chess/commen...

This video is the fourth in a series that takes a deeper dive into the theoretical intricacies of specific variations of the Open Sicilian. Covered here is the Najdorf, the most popular and well-respected variation of them all. Essayed by two of the greatest players to ever live, Kasparov and Fischer, the Najdorf is sharp, and definitely fun to analyze and study!
