In a current game I played the Sicilian with 2...g6 and my opponent played the 3. c3 variation. Following the analysis from Roman's lab I played 3...Bg7 4. d4 cxd4 5. cxd4 d5 6. e5 Bg4, now Roman says that black equalizes by playing Nc6 and e6, trading off his light squared bishop and bringing the kings knight to f5, but no mention is made of the move 7. Bb5+!, which makes Nc6 less attractive and all in all seems to give black a bad position, I just used this as an example of why you shouldn't follow these variations without checking them beforehand even though alot of Roman's ideas are interesting.
if this is meaning to suggest that I blindly follow whatever is on the dvd, no, I don't. I listen to what the person is saying, you actually listening to what they are saying about different things. I only play moves that I understand, I understand the moves with help of GMs who make quality dvds for players 2200 and below.
I'm not going through this, going back to the dvd to see what he stated, and then coming back here to tell you what you have wrong here. all I am going to say is something either happened in your game that you are not relating here, or you are misrepresenting the information presented in the dvd. jesus christ. I can't believe people have such animosity for GM Dzindzichasvili!!! wow. ok. all I am going to say is that the lines and analysis he presents in that dvd are completely valid and checked with a super computer, if you really understand what he is saying about it all, you can play these lines and get rock solid positions from the opening. what happens in the middlegame and endgame is something else entirely.
