"Terrible game" | Shirov vs Kunin | Sicilian Rossolimo
GM Kunin plays Siclian Nc6 against 1.e4 of Shirov. Alexei is well know specialist in Sveshnikov, however decided to play less principled but extensively popular Rossolimo variation. Shirov shows good preparation and quickly gets a winning position with Black's king in the center. However he starts making mistakes and first impression after game ended was as follows: "Terrible game!"

The Rossolimo Variation 3.Bb5 is considered to be one of the strongest replies to 2…Nc6 in the Sicilian Defence. The fact that the move has been played by practically all the top players proves its popularity and strength. But the most interesting aspect of playing 3.Bb5 is that we force sharp, attacking players who love to have the initiative to forget about the Open Sicilian and to adjust themselves to a new world, one full of positional ideas, manoeuvres and nuances. Time has proved the correctness of his theory and nowadays the best answer to 3…g6 is considered to be 4.Bxc6; also after 3…e6 one of the best replies is again 4.Bxc6. We should not be afraid of conceding the bishop pair to our opponent. In exchange we get very good coordination of our pieces, usually by placing the pawns on squares of the opposite colour to that of our bishop.
