OP, you are rated 1622 and you dont know the Sicilian?!

if i play you in a petroff, i will be in some kind of theory till move 10 unless you take me out of it. I know lots of other openings, but just never got into the sicilian.

Oh, boy, Wikipedia!

again, what is your point?

Wikipedia is hardly reliable - anyone can change it at any time. Even I have edited it. Now let's stop fighting on this thread - and you don't give chess advice.

Wrong.  Not anyone can edit it.  It has been used by the masters mentioned in the entry.  You can't try to troll me then say stop fighting.  I just gave chess advice moron.

if you are playing the white side of the sicilian I recommend 2. c3.  (Alapin variation)  You don't need to know that much theory and white's play is intuitive.

says the guy who claims taking a dropped piece is a brilliancy.

Yes.  What is your point?

My point - you're a noob, and your advice should be ignored.

It is ad hominem moron.

it's not, it is proof that you don't know what you are talking about. Now, calling someone a moron on the other hand...

ad hominem isn't just a personal attack.

In any case, bringing up your expertise (or lack thereof) is a logical way to argue and isn't ad hominem at all.

no.  Sicilian Alapin is fine.  My other post has nothing to do with the merits of the Sicilian Alapin.

and as for wiki, I just changed the page you took a screenshot of to say that the sicilian is fundamentally flawed.

See under main variations, before I change it back.

Timothy I know that the Sicilian Alapin is fine.  It is probably the best Anti-Sicilian.  Also you called me a noob so I call you a moron.  You started this BS trolling and I'm OK to keep continuing mate.

Well, I guess his implying your other topic made the advice in this topic bad wasn't a good argument.

I've never tried c3 vs the sicilian so I don't know if the play is intuitive or not.

OK so I was wrong about being able to edit Wiki.  Well guess what, Sicilian Alapin is still a good opening for white against the Sicilian.
