Fight the Anti-Sicilians
After his highly successful Najdorf camps, GM Papaioannou delves into the Anti-Sicilian setups employed by White.
Statistically speaking, as a Sicilian player, in 50% of your games, you will face Anti-Sicilian setups. Therefore, having a solid repertoire against these lines is of crucial importance.
True to his didactic approach, GM Ioannis Papaioannou will provide you with a practical repertoire that is not based on memorization of long variations. Additionally, all the proposed lines will be designed for the needs of the tournament player. Hence, our objective will be to overplay the opponent in complex practical positions that we know better.

✅ Better understanding of the fundamental Anti-Sicilian structures
✅ Knowledge of the typical positional and tactical ideas in the Anti-Sicilians
