Dragon Defense


The yugoslav attack is just one of many variations white can choose against the Dragon Sicilian. The levenfisch attack is another......
Just curious: What's the point of white playing Kb1? I never understood why so many people play this.

Since much of Black's attack comes along the half open c-file, the a1-h8 diagonal, and the weak a2 square (remember Black's thematic sac on c3), Black's king is safer on b1 and in some cases adds support to the a2 pawn. I believe Topalov made the move very popular.

Yeah... dragon is so cool :P.
