Tried it some time, studied it, always got my ass kicked. Also most games of the day involving Silian, White wins. Thanks but no thanks.

This is pretty much the only way I counter the Kings Pawn opening when I am black. I've pretty much never had a good game by mirroring the king's pawn opening (just that initial move, not the whole game).

Sicilian defense is very sharp,but is effective if you know a good.The great masters world championships have been successful with this opening.

Hehehe, what were the chances, perhaps tomorrows opening will be simply, King's Pawn.

Morris__

1. e4 c5 2. e5 Nc6 3. f4 d6

gives a good response with Nc6 for black.

 

Personally I prefer to play e6 a typical line being as follows:

 1. e4 c5 2. e5 e6 3. Nf3 Nc6 4. c3 d5 5. d4

From here Qb6, Nge7 and Bd7 all give black a good opportunity.

What can black do if white plays e5? Seems to stop the sicilian defense pretty well. Black wo'nt get anything solved with Nc6 since white can support with pawn to f4 ...

HeavyVee, just look at the top four moves on the list to begin with, as the vast majority of games that begin this way begin with one of the top four moves on the list above.

I don't understand this opening as you put a whole lot of choices and I'm not even sure which next particular move. At least if you can show some games or even halve-games than to give these end-less-listed choice moves.
