Sicilian Defense: Najdorf Variation, Lipnitsky AttackBETA

47%49%

    A poor move. Now the c4-bishop has an uncontested diagonal towards the softest spot in black's position: f7.


The Lipnitsky (or Fischer-Sozin) Attack, is a critical attempt for an advantage in the Najdorf. White plays as actively with the pieces as possible, and attempts to pry open the black king with a quick f4-f5 pawn break.
