"To understand an opening, you need to know the historical background and have a good feel for the dynamics," says Grandmaster Dorian Rogozenco in the introduction to this video course. Based on 30 years of personal experience at a high level, Rogozenco offers a complete guide for Black in the modern theory of the Sveshnikov Sicilian.

The Sveshnikov Sicilian became popular again after the 2018 World Championship match between Magnus Carlsen and Fabiano Caruana, in which the world champion used this opening as one of his main weapons. The starting point of this video course is 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 e5. Rogozenco explains the peculiarities of the main and secondary variations. The course consists of 12 parts, each of which contains a video introduction and a database. In the video introduction, the author explains some historical background of the variation, its strategic ideas and gives clear move recommendations for Black. In addition to the material in the video introductions, the databases contain several important annotated games with all the necessary theoretical details.
