GM Eugene Perelshteyn comes up with a new weapon in our beloved Grand Prix Attack 5.a4! Eugene explains the power of this waiting vs the most common reply 5…e6. The key idea is 6.e5! and Black is almost busted!
White’s plan of attack vs d6,e6,Be7 setup in the Grand Prix Attack is very similar to our main ideas with rapid development, Qe1 and a timely e5 push. Punish Black on the dark squares!
GM Eugene Perelshteyn brings you a beautiful execution of many of White’s attacking ideas in the Sicilian Grand Prix …d6 variation. This game highlights how dangerous Grand Prix can be for Black, and even features a nice tactical combination ending in a mating net! A truly model game!
