Description of Roman's Lab Vol 84: Rybka's Quest to Replace the Ruy Lopez
Roman and Rybka completely overturn a well established 100 year old move-order in the Giuoco Piano, (one that no one ever dared to doubt) in which White claims a sizable advantage.
It's truly amazing to see how a effectice this harmless move is--a move that four different grandmasters -including Karpov- would not take seriously. But after 20 or 30 minutes they all gave up for Black's position completely, admitting White's superiority. This is truly one of the most revolutionary discoveries in modern chess theory.
GM Roman Dzindzichash also introduces a relatively new way to play with the 3.Bb3 Sicilian. White mixes the Rossolimo and Grand Prix variations with powerful suggestions from Rybka. Catch Black napping with this improved sideline.
