Want to experiment with atypical replies to the Sicilian Defense?

Sort:

Hi everyone! 

I've created a tournament for players who would like to try their hands at playing anything but 2. Nf3 in response to 1...c5, after 1. e4

This tournament is for everyone who wants to toy with various replies to 1. e4 c5except 2. Nf3. Every game begins at the second White move, and White can play any move he or she wants, just not 2. Nf3

As long as White doesn't play 2. Nf3 it's okay. So everything from Closed Sicilian (2. Nc6), to the wicked Myers Attack (2. a4) is just dandy. 

Let's have fun, and see how we can smash Black's Sicilian Defense with White, or brush off White's offbeat second move with a solid Black reply. 

Please do not enter this tournament, if you insist on playing 2. Nf3
