The main ideas of the Rossolimo are rapid development and seizing the initiative. I have seen several games by Rossolimo himself and have come to admire this variation of the Sicilian. When Rossolimo originally started playing 3.Bb5 he wanted to castle as early as move four and then go on the attack. I stumbled on the game Fischer-Spassky 1992 in my research and I want to share this wonderful game. This game illustrates the ideas of development and grabbing the tempo.

Blitz chess (also known as speed or fast chess) is a type of chess in which each player is given less time to consider their moves than normal tournament time controls allow. Openings, tactics and strategy are same.

Another masterpiece from Shirov. The piece movement and control of squares are instructive. Fedoseev's counterplay was weak. Good addition to the Sicilian Rossolimo collection.

Good game by Shirov. Happy to see veteran players beating rising stars.

Anyone who can explain me why black is meant to lose the rock at 7:00?

[@Zenthollo]

If Rxe6, follows Nh6+ and Qh8+

[@alekhine80]

This is not a "fight for dark squares"...this is "how you lose every black square" in 9 minutes.....great game from shirov though
