The Sicilian Defence is a chess opening which begins with 1.e4 c5
This is the most popular response to 1.e4 at the master level. Black immediately fights for the centre, but by attacking from the c-file (instead of mirroring White's move) he creates an asymmetrical position that leads to complicated situations. Typically, White has the initiative on the kingside while Black obtains counterplay on the queenside, particularly on the c-file after the exchange of Black's c-pawn for White's d-pawn. According to Chessbase, black chances are about 43% ============ Contributors : Thibault de Vassal [ECO "B20"] [Opening "Sicilian defense"] Nf3 : 14035 games, White ELO av : 1858, Black ELO av : 1870 1-0 : 36.9% , 1/2-1/2 : 31% , 0-1 : 32.1% Nc3 : 1365 games, White ELO av : 1754, Black ELO av : 1777 1-0 : 38.1% , 1/2-1/2 : 22.7% , 0-1 : 39.3% c3 : 1021 games, White ELO av : 1792, Black ELO av : 1821 1-0 : 33.9% , 1/2-1/2 : 32.2% , 0-1 : 34% d4 : 725 games, White ELO av : 1699, Black ELO av : 1707 1-0 : 42% , 1/2-1/2 : 19.7% , 0-1 : 38.4% f4 : 523 games, White ELO av : 1676, Black ELO av : 1695 1-0 : 37.9% , 1/2-1/2 : 11.2% , 0-1 : 51% Bc4 : 293 games, White ELO av : 1429, Black ELO av : 1495 1-0 : 30.5% , 1/2-1/2 : 2.4% , 0-1 : 67.1% c4 : 176 games, White ELO av : 1451, Black ELO av : 1580 1-0 : 24.6% , 1/2-1/2 : 12.3% , 0-1 : 63.2% a3 : 156 games, White ELO av : 1658, Black ELO av : 1695 1-0 : 46.2% , 1/2-1/2 : 12.2% , 0-1 : 41.7% b4 : 146 games, White ELO av : 1602, Black ELO av : 1645 1-0 : 39% , 1/2-1/2 : 15.8% , 0-1 : 45.2% d3 : 70 games, White ELO av : 1628, Black ELO av : 1670 1-0 : 26.5% , 1/2-1/2 : 13.2% , 0-1 : 60.3% b3 : 41 games, White ELO av : 1841, Black ELO av : 1835 1-0 : 31.7% , 1/2-1/2 : 14.6% , 0-1 : 53.7% Na3 : 40 games, White ELO av : 1491, Black ELO av : 1621 1-0 : 38.5% , 1/2-1/2 : 15.4% , 0-1 : 46.2% Ne2 : 39 games, White ELO av : 1910, Black ELO av : 1950 1-0 : 33.3% , 1/2-1/2 : 28.2% , 0-1 : 38.5% g3 : 17 games, White ELO av : 1653, Black ELO av : 1786 1-0 : 56.3% , 1/2-1/2 : 0% , 0-1 : 43.8% Bb5 : 15 games, White ELO av : 1468, Black ELO av : 1624 1-0 : 28.6% , 1/2-1/2 : 0% , 0-1 : 71.4% e5 : 14 games, White ELO av : 1552, Black ELO av : 1566 1-0 : 7.1% , 1/2-1/2 : 0% , 0-1 : 92.9% Qf3 : 13 games, White ELO av : 1337, Black ELO av : 1485 1-0 : 30.8% , 1/2-1/2 : 0% , 0-1 : 69.2% Qh5 : 11 games, White ELO av : 1464, Black ELO av : 1475 1-0 : 36.4% , 1/2-1/2 : 0% , 0-1 : 63.6% h3 : 11 games, White ELO av : 1586, Black ELO av : 1829 1-0 : 45.5% , 1/2-1/2 : 9.1% , 0-1 : 45.5% Be2 : 9 games, White ELO av : 2084, Black ELO av : 2099 1-0 : 11.1% , 1/2-1/2 : 66.7% , 0-1 : 22.2% Bd3 : 3 games, White ELO av : 1441, Black ELO av : 1469 1-0 : 66.7% , 1/2-1/2 : 0% , 0-1 : 33.3% f3 : 2 games, White ELO av : 1519, Black ELO av : 1436 1-0 : 0% , 1/2-1/2 : 0% , 0-1 : 100% g4 : 2 games, White ELO av : 2298, Black ELO av : 2066 1-0 : 100% , 1/2-1/2 : 0% , 0-1 : 0% a4 : 1 game, White ELO av : 1700, Black ELO av : 1816 1-0 : 0% , 1/2-1/2 : 0% , 0-1 : 100% h4 : 1 game, White ELO av : 1777, Black ELO av : 2270 1-0 : 0% , 1/2-1/2 : 0% , 0-1 : 100% See this chess line with the javascript viewer ![]()
