The yugoslav attack is just one of many variations white can choose against the Dragon Sicilian. The levenfisch attack is another......

Just curious: What's the point of white playing Kb1? I never understood why so many people play this.

Since much of Black's attack comes along the half open c-file, the a1-h8 diagonal, and the weak a2 square (remember Black's thematic sac on c3), Black's king is safer on b1 and in some cases adds support to the a2 pawn. I believe Topalov made the move very popular.

Move 10 is wrong, and there are many variants on move 9. Submit it as a game plus variations.

It's because after exchanging the Knight on c3 the a pawn can be easily attaked
