The following are main line moves 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5 g6 4.BxNc6 dxBc6, of the Rossolimo. This opening is also known as the Anti-Sicilian but often know as the Rossolimo Attack.

To jump start this post is Chess Lecture video posted on You Tube on the Rossolimo.

Also at the end of the Part One video on the Rossolimo I am providing one Annotated Chess Flash game and then the other links to the other parts to this exhaustive Chess Lecture on the Rossolimo Variation presented on You Tube.

Directly below the You Tube Part One video is a Rossolimo Variation game with notes taken from the " Blue Book" Second edition of Standard Chess Openings by Eric Schiller. Finally after the links to the other You Tube Chess video's on the Rossolimo variation are four Grandmaster games spotlighting this Anti-Sicilian.
