Sicilian Defense: Lasker-Pelikan Variation trainer

Back to the opening, all openings to practise or my repertoire

Type a move and press Enter: e4, Nf3, O-O, or from and to squares like g1f3 (e7e8q to promote). The board is also played with the mouse.

Practise the Sicilian Defense: Lasker-Pelikan Variation

The Lasker-Pelikan Variation of the Sicilian Defense (1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 e5) is better known today as the Sveshnikov Variation. Play Black's moves of the line from memory — 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nf6 5. Nc3 e5 — and the trainer plays White's replies; "Play the other side" turns it around.

"Drill all" adds the 9 named lines that continue it, such as Sicilian Defense: Lasker-Pelikan Variation, Schlechter Variation, Sicilian Defense: Lasker-Pelikan Variation, Sveshnikov Variation, Sicilian Defense: Lasker-Pelikan Variation, Sveshnikov Variation, Chelyabinsk Variation, Sicilian Defense: Lasker-Pelikan Variation, Retreat Variation, Sicilian Defense: Lasker-Pelikan Variation, Exchange Variation, Sicilian Defense: Lasker-Pelikan Variation, Sveshnikov Variation, Novosibirsk Variation, Sicilian Defense: Lasker-Pelikan Variation, Bird Variation, Sicilian Defense: Lasker-Pelikan Variation, Sveshnikov Variation, Peresypkin's Sacrifice.
