Anti-Sicilians
Anti-Sicilian lovers. White players like to avoid the Open Sicilian altogether, preferring one of the many 'Anti-Sicilian' lines on offer. These numerous options for White include the primitive but dangerous Grand Prix Attack, one or two wild gambits, but most of all some tedious and niggling variations such as 2 c3, the Closed and Bb5 systems, all of which are designed to stamp out any fun Black was envisaging when playing 1...c5.
