    I can show you them next weekend if you want. Grand Prix is pretty tricky. It is very agressive. You need to defend carefully as black. The closed sicilian is pretty passive and becomes a positional game. Just play your best, and overtime, you will get used to it

    Isn't it obvious? It completely refutes the open sicilian before it's even played by restriction of the d-pawn. It also puts pressure on the important a5-e1 diagonal. It's not as dangerous as the main Parham, but you're black.
