The Scheveningen is an uncompromising and flexible variation of Black`s most popular defence to 1 e4, the Sicilian. It`s a firm favourite of the world`s greatest ever chess player, Garry Kasparov, who used it many times in crucial games, including his world championship matches against Anatoly Karpov and Vishy Anand. His success rate against Karpov was so good that the former world champion was forced to abandon his normal first move to avoid it!
