Best Variation of Sicilian

Sort:
Castle149

The way this works is I will list several variations of the Sicilian and you will vote for one and try to hurt another. At the end  of a certain amount of time I will eliminate some of the variations and Round 2 will start with your votes and hates counting for double the original amount. Then there will be a Round 3 and a Round 4 with your votes and hates  counting for triple and quadruple the amount from  Round 1. At the end one opening will be known as King of the Sicilian. Round 2 Begins (Votes count for double.)

Keep sending in more votes to see your favorite variation crowned and the one you hate eliminated.
