Sicilian with 3.Bb5 - Shirov "Amazon" 3-month access to all coursesThe Rossolimo Variation of the Sicilian Defense (1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bb5) is always an excellent choice with White if you want to avoid the deeply analyzed main lines of the Open Sicilian (3. d4), in which the analysis frequently goes deep into the middle game or sometimes even into the endgame. For that reason the move 3. Bb5 has a fi rm place in the repertoire of many grandmasters where it is welcome above all as an anti Sveshnikov weapon.
