    Off the Wall Chess - Classical Sicilian

    Submitted by billwall on Tue, 09/11/2007 at 6:52pm.

    The Classical Sicilian (1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 d6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 Nc6, or 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 d6) is a very common opening in the Sicilian Defense. Usually White follows up with 6.Bg5 or 6.Bc4. I decided to be different and tried 6.Bb5, first played by Mackenzie against Louis Paulsen at Frankfurt in 1887. I was lucky to win this game. I grabbed a poison pawn that should have trapped my queen, but then my opponent grabbed a poison pawn that led to mate after I sacked the rook, then my knight.
