Another brilliant destruction of the Sicilian Defense. Is this the game that finally causes everyone to give up on 1.c5??

He's been playing and posting less ever since I started posting his losing games as soon as they happen, must be scared to lose, the pressure's on.

I get good results with 2c3. A lot of Sicilian players don't know how to play against it. At the ratings I play, they mostly don't play 2 ,,, d5 and Nf6,

Statistically, the Alapin is as good as the Open Sicilian. The only difference is, it takes Black a little longer to equalise in the Open.

No it isn't...

alapin 29/28 Open Sicilian 31/24

You should use a professionall chess database, and only take into account master games. It's like I said 50/50, more or less.

my opponent played the massive blunder 1. c5 but then immediately recognized his mistake after I played 2. c3 and he immediately resigned

Proper way to play the alapin and delayed alapin as black...

They shouldn't, considering stockfish says that position is 0,0 at depth 57, and that you've lost in that position multiple times before. It's more likely they had to run to take a dump than they were intimidated by alapin.
Looks like your alapin got dumpstered on again a couple days ago: https://www.chess.com/game/live/168215846800?username=staples13&move=4
