this vid is great, I'm a great fan of this opening. Althrought, I think that white plays simple Bxf5 in 13. move and I haven't found any continue better for black

why would you ever put your knight there it seems the bishop can come in and take the white one protected by rook

as a sicilian defense player i have to say i don't like this. giving up the king's bishop for a knight seems like a very bad move.

He sounds like he's trying to sell me the accelerated dragon.

Interesting ideas... my personal preference if I have to trade the bishop is to have the Q take control of that diagonal in its stead, thus keeping the enemy B at bay. Have to admit that might not be very useful with White pushing his pawn to g3 though.

Speaking as a mere mortal, the Accelerated Dragon is pretty much my favorite defense for Black. I've also been puzzled as to why it doesn't get much attention from the pundits, but I just always figured it's because the better players see something there I'm not seeing.
I haven't found a more versatile defense yet.

My first comment was my reaction to the first few seconds of the video.
I was tempted to stop watching the video altogether, since it promised
a bad shot at viewing the board. But that's just the intro, and the video
does splendidly thereafter, by going to a eye pleasing 2D board.
