IM Marcin Sieciechowicz reveals…

When you play the c5 and follow it up with a6, your opponent knows that you mean business.

That’s Najdorf Sicilian for you, ladies and gentlemen.

The opening that the Kasparovs and the Fischers of the chess world employ to stare down their opponents and whisper in their ears, “I am here to crush you!”

Wait! What if White goes for the …Bc4, Bg5, Be2, Be3, h3…?

Black must be precise in what he plays next.

Let me tell you something.

When you are a Najdorf player…

  • The slope is slippery.
  • The terrain is treacherous.
  • Skipping the theory is not really an option.

That’s why we bring this brand-new course on Najdorf Sicilian by IM Marcin Sieciechowicz where he is going to teach YOU the secrets of this fascinating opening.

Marcin has won many medals in the Polish junior chess championship, including becoming the 2010 U18 Junior Polish champion. He’s already got two GM norms and his peak rating was 2462.

What’s more?

He has got a lot of experience playing the Najdorf Sicilian and he is here to share his unique knowledge and practical insights of this opening with you.

A sneak peek into the training:

  • The ambitious 6.h3! White wants to mobilize the pawns in front of his king. Next, fianchetto the king’s bishop. And pull off a kingside attack. Can he? Not if Black does what Marcin suggests in Chapters 4 and 5.
  • The antidote to White’s 6.f4. White wants to grab center control with the e4 and f4 pawn push. What’s next? Simple. Play …e5 immediately and challenge it. The idea is to capture it on the next move.
  • Sozin variation redefined. White’s light-square bishop goes to c4 and repositions itself to b3. Dangerous! Looking directly at the Black king. Marcin tells you how to nullify White’s tactical ideas in this line and play for an advantage instead.
  • Delay castling in the English attack. If White wants a fight on the kingside by castling long himself, don’t give him that. Instead, push that h-pawn forward to stop any pawn push and reroute your knight to c5 to get more piece activity there.
  • Fianchettoed bishop on g2. A sharp line where White gets a lot of powerplay on the queenside. What should Black do? Sacrifice a piece, blow open the center, and go for a king hunt! More in Chapters 6 and 7.
