help:najdorf against sozin attack Nbd7
Sort:
Against the Bc4 line, I like to play the Nbd7 then jump right to Nc5 next move usually. That way you can exchange whites light squared Bishop when you desire. Typically blacks dark squares Bishop will go to e7 and the light squared Bishop for black depends on the situation but it usually either goes to d7 or b7. In particular, when blacks light squared Bishop is on b7 it puts pressure on whites e4 pawn.
Ok
I play najdorf in the open Sicilian,and the Sozin attack could be the most annoying to me.
Maybe it's because I usually play Nbd7 in other variation but Nc6 in this Sozin line.
At first I feel much safe when play Nc6-Nd4 to exchange white's center knight, releasing the pressure on e6.
But as becoming more and more familiar and comfortable with Nbd7, I want to play this in in Sozin and find some difficult. I know Nbd7-Nc5 is a good plan in this line,but how about others?where should I set my light bishop?and I feel black's pawn counter attack in this line maybe a bit different from other naidorf variation,am I right?
I will much appreciate your talk and help
and never mind my poor English please
