Helpful info on Sicilian defense?

I need some helpful info on the Sicilian defense, because I'm going to start playing the opening, I need to know everything that would be helpful to me (a beginner) and that would help me learn the Sicilian defense. What would help me? Thanks,  -KH

Looks like at least a dozen applicable threads.  Bound to be something helpful.  Probably as many approaches as there are chess players.  Luckily we live in the age of "Over Information", now it's about selection.  Good luck. I use FCO for theory and HIARCS to play through master games in a database and play against but there are dozens of good tools.  Heck, as a beginner you could probably get by with Wikipedia entries.  Have fun.

Go to it. Be prepared for alot of losses, and sudden losses. The Sicilian is a tough beast to tame and you do a high wire act with the Najdorf and Scheveningen....the Taimanov though has the reputation of being the most solid of all the variations. As for help, there are many books on the Sicilian. Choose a variation that will be your speciality...then branch out from there.

Keep in mind, the sicilian rarely ends in a draw, and is a fun game to watch. If you play defensive, don't play this opening.
