Andrew Greet is a young International Master, a former British Junior Champion, and is one of the UK's most rapidly improving players. He is also an experienced coach and writes regular articles for CHESS.
The Accelerated Dragon is a dynamic choice for Black and arguably the most natural way to play the Sicilian Defence: Black develops rapidly and chooses the most active squares to place his or her pieces. Unknowing white players looking for a direct attack similar to the one used against traditional Dragon are shocked by Black’s increased options due to the flexible move order. Instead, White sometimes employs a more positional approach incorporating the famous Maróczy Bind, when the battle centres on White’s impressive pawn structure against Black’s lively pieces and the ability to create a pawn break. The Accelerated Dragon was brought to prominence by the Danish chess legend Bent Larsen, while in more recent years its advocates have included World Championship Candidate Sergey Tiviakov.
