benonidini, so its for black and black wins, (nc4, nxn ,ra1, kxr, qa8+ kc1 qa1#) if not mistaken, if not then black in winning position. Any attacks white have?

Sveshnikov is a long time favourite of mine, though I also like the Taimanov

Kalashnikov / Sveshnikov if White avoids the Maroczy.

I like the Dragon. The sheer number of variations put me off when I started to study the Sicilian, so I picked the few with the coolest sounding names (stupid I know, but I was still pretty new to chess. Still am, really) = Dragon, Sveshnikov, Scheveningen.
