The Accelerated Dragon is a dynamic, solid answer to 1.e4. By knowing how to counter the Maroczy Bind, Black can counter both the English and Reti Openings and even develop the basis of a defense against 1.d4.
A main opening of superstars such as Bent Larsen and Tigran Petrosian, the Accelerated Dragon is an even more effective weapon for club players. At the club level, many white players are under the mistaken impression that the positions are like a regular Sicilian Dragon. And if this is the case they can find themselves being demolished right out of the opening. Video running time: 4 hours.
