Play the Sicilian Taimanov like a Grandmaster! | 1700-1800 

It’s insane he knows it instantly

Yeah you sound like that. but at least you aren't delusional and oblivious to the fact that it's Aman playing well not them playing worse than the normal 1500.

magnetic chess boards help with the wind - pro tip.

i see you too have found the 1200s that play like 1800s. i hope you're free from the 1200 - 1400 elo hell

Bro not all 1700s are same,and 1200s literally blunder everything 💀

need it too

yeah, we do. it's actively good for black for white to play Bc4 in the taimanov. but white couldn't play Bc4 without b5 kicking it off the diagonal or trapping it after Bb3 c4. they usually play Bc4 and waste time with a3 since b5 always comes with tempo and they'd rather die than leave the a2-g8 diagonal. most people who don't know taimanov theory love the bishop on that diagonal for some reason. maybe it makes them think of the italian game, idk. playing b5 first completely stops Bc4, which white shouldn't be playing anyway. but it's a tilt-inducing move for bad white players because they really really want Bc4. i guarantee that if Aman didn't play b5, white would play Bc4 followed by Ba2
