1. e2e4  1... c7c5  2. g1f3  2... d7d6  3. f1b5  3... b8d7 This and 3...Bd7 are the most popular moves. My old favorite, 3... Nc6, is not enough for equality. 4. a2a4 White has many possible plans in this system. This is one of the popular choices right now. The pawn push is useful because the bishop will go back after a7-a6, and Black will not have the chance to play b7-b5. 4... g8f6  5. b1c3  5... a7a6  6. b5e2  6... g7g6  7. e1g1  7... f8g7  8. d2d4 This natural move brings back the typical Open Sicilian pawn structure. I like it, but for some reason, it's not the most popular. 8... c5d4  9. f3d4  9... b7b6  10. d4c6 [%c_effect c6;square;c6;type;GreatFind;persistent;true] A new and interesting move, exploiting the weakness of the c6-square to improve the knight's position. 10... d8c7  11. c6b4  11... c8b7  12. b4d5 The knight completes its journey. Of course, it's not the end of the world for Black.
