  • Sicilian Defense / Nc6 Variation / Pelikan Variation / ( 6.h4) This is a book buster a previously unknown variation. Maybe some in our league members can give it a name by a strong performance in tournament?
  • 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 d6 6.h4 !!(6.Bc4 the Sozin Attack is one of many book lines)

6...e5 7.Nf5 Bxf5 8.exf5 d5 9.Bb5!!! (This move is very important it give the White King a flight square and gets rid of that pesky knight.)

9...d4 10.Bxc6+ bxc6 11.Ne2 Bc5 12.Ng3 O-O 13.Bg5 Rb8 14.b3 Qa5+ 15.Kf1!!! ( if you are going to take advantage of the 6.h4 move you must give up castleing kingside and Also casteling Queenside here is out)

The rest of the game shows how the pawn at 6.h4 helps attack blacks Kingside. You can click through it below. 15...
