Sicilian-Classical or Nf6? What about Dragon?

Actually "Paulsen" is common denomination to 2...e6 systems.

Taimanov is pretty sweet though.

I`m too lazy for memorizing enormous amount of lines, so I don`t play Sicilian at all 😛

Bingo. Although I can't really dog the ...Nc6 and ...e5 systems either. The Sveshnikov, even though I don't play it, is so damn interesting.

And what system will you play after 2.c3 ? 😉

I love the Dragon more than life itself. 😀

Korch, what do you think about the ...g6 lines, intending something like 2. c3 g6 3. d4 cd 4. cd d5 ? I've always thought these lines were atypical for the c3 Sicilians and maybe a good choice for a Dragon and Grunfeld player like myself. I have a friend who religiously plays 2. c3 and he says this line bothers him. What's your take?

I like 2...d5 after 2.c3

This is the move I currently play, but I think ...g6 is interesting and wanted someone's opinion on it, and Korch seems to be the local 2. c3 guru. 😀
