Hello guys I am thinking about going for the Sicilian but i think its a well analysed.

Still which variation of Sicilian should i play and what other defences do i have to look for?

 It seems people have developed a lot of  Anti Sicilian lines nowadays....

And a ,lot of theory goes into the Sicilian ....

So Not so sure about it.

Ok Thank You...

You could play the french

If it is about avoiding many choices, I think the way to limit them the most is playing French and going for Rubinstein variation, which comes after both 3. Nc3 and 3. Nd2 by white. The only other common white moves are exchange and advance I think.

But at my level I've found answering ...e5 and just stick to basic opening principles is probably the best choice.

I agree sticking to e5 .

Cause I will meet new players which i have nevereven heard names of and they will be strong players.

So trying to be smart with them might backfire on me.

e5. Just watch what your opponent is up to, careful not to hang anything, but don't be afraid of ghosts.
