Sicilian Wing Gambit
[Eric Schiller, 15.07.2004]

14.Ng5 Qg6 15.Nxe6 Qxe6 seems a bit better
for Black, Haub vs. Lukov, 1994.;
A2)
7...Bc5
8.Qe2 has been suggested by Paul Keiser in the
discussion on the Unorthodox Openings group at
Yahoo. e4
( 8...Bd6
is a computer
recommendation. This of course suggests that
7... Bd6 might be a good option!

9.d4 Be7 10.Qb5+ Qxb5
11.Bxb5+ Bd7 12.Bxd7+ Nxd7 13.Nfd2 f5
White has nothing to show for the pawn. This line
was given by Keiser.;

7...Nf6
8.Nb5 0-0 9.Nc7 Qc5 10.Nxa8 e4 11.Ng1
Here ECO gives 11...Re8, but Buecker offers two
alternatives.
B1a)
11...e3 12.fxe3 Qxe3+
13.Qe2 Qd4 14.c3 Bxc3 15.Ra3 Re8
and White can't afford to sacrifice the queen by
c a p t u r i n g o n c 3 o r e 8 , f o r e x a m p l e 16.Rxc3
( 16.dxc3 Rxe2+ 17.Bxe2 Qe4 18.Nf3 Qc2
19.Bd2 Qb1+ 20.Bd1 Qe4+ ; 16.Qxe8+ Nxe8
17.Rxc3 Nc6 18.Nf3 Qd8
and the knight at a8
will never escape.
)
16...Bg4 17.Nc7 Rxe2+
18.Nxe2 Qe5 19.h3 Bxe2 20.Bxe2 Ne4
. These are just a few sample lines, but I believe
that the 7...Nf6 line touted by Buecker gives
Black just a small example, and still prefer our 7...
Bxa3 ;
B1b)
11...Ng4 is Buecker's other plan.
After 12.Nh3 e3 13.Be2 ! Nxf2 14.Nxf2 exf2+
15.Kf1 Black has two pawns for the rook, and
may pick up the knight at a8, but White will be
able to untangle with c3 or d3, depending on
Black's moves;
B1c)
11...Re8 12.c3
is better for White.;
B2)
7...Bxa3 8.Bxa3 Nc6
9.c4 Qd8 10.Qb1 Nge7 11.Bd3 f5
(
We recommended
11...g6

claims that White has good compensation after
12.Be4 f5
Why not just castle?

14.Bxc6+ bxc6 15.Ra5
and here he claims
equality for White. I rather doubt that.
0-0
16.Rxe5 Qf7
and Black has an outside passed
pawn and bishop against knight. The pawn at c4
is weak. Black may not have a decisive
advantage, but any claim of equality for White is
unjustified.
)
] So, let's go back to the position
where Black accepts the pawn offer on the 3rd
move:
4.Nxa3 d6 5.Bc4
[ 5.d4 Nf6 6.Bd3 g6
gives Blac k a good Modern Defense, and the
sacrifice of White's queenside pawns has not
brought White anything in return.]
5...Nf6 6.Bb2
Nc6 7.Qe2 e6 8.Nf3 Be7 9.0-0 0-0 10.Nb5
Spielmann vs. Gebhardt, 1926. As Joel Benjamin
and I pointed out in our 1987 book, Black can
now play 10...d5 and becomes a better position
with an extra pawn. After all, the basic plan for
Black in the Sicilian is the ...d5 break. Later
Black can expand with ...a6 and ...b5.

The Sicilian Wing Gambit is a futile attempt by
White to grab the initiative. Such a weakening of
the queenside just gives Black extra targets, and
White gets nothing in return but temporary
custody of d4.

position is a mess after the simple
Qd8
