e6 vs d6 Sicilian

The thing with the d6 sicilian is it is so hard to break down. why play e6 when d6 is so hard to refute. I am switching to d4 as my main just to avoid the d6 sicilian

This conversation came about’s because a majority of my play were e6 structures.

I play the Najdorf and Dragon because that’s what was taught to me against the open Sicilian but winning was the reasons why I continued with it.

Have considered the English or Reti?

Yeah not my play style. I will honestly prolly stick with e4 but i am learning d4 so if i know someone plays the d6 sicilian i can avoid it.

That’s is awesome and funny at the same time that you are putting in so much effort because of the d6 Sicilian.

Also the Caro Kann tbh. if i can avoid that i would be happy.

See what i  mean? My win rate is great or decent against everything besides c6 and c5. and in c5 i have a winning record vs all the lines not d6

The CK is stubborn.

Have you tried accelerating to the Panov Attack? I do this the odd time transposed from 1. c4.

My main lines against the CK are the Katalimov as white where I keep the pawn tension and break open the d file. I do the same against the Alapin and white does not get his two center pawns.

The other line is by the Reti in getting c4 to open up the Catalan Bishop.

Panov is gross. I like the fantasy tbh but it is not good enough at this level

That is a wide margin.

What are you playing against the Sicilian?

English attack set up vs all of it besides the classical. the classical i play the Rauzer. I think i play the set ups wrong but idk

You should segment the data to rapid.

Bullet and blitz would skew the significance of the data.

May be do some home work and stay consistent with your replies.

There are plenty of resources on those where white is favorable.

i mostly play blitz. I like never play Rapid except for NSPCL

Lastly, you can consider 2. c4 and transpose to the Botvinnik System to kill the excitement then and there.

This is the rapid

If i am going to switch openings i am gonna to play d4. I already bought Sam SHanklands course on it.

These are the openings i play. I know them well but still struggle.

He’s pretty good.

There's a tricky sideline against 1... c6. The Breyer Variation is a gambit, but it is a somewhat solid gambit, as at the very worst, you will have two pieces developed, an open center, the ability to castle, and the ability to take back the lost pawn, while your opponent will have only one piece developed to a sub-optimal square. At best, you can have a +3, +7.5, or M6 advantage by move 7.
