Mastering The Hedgehog Sicilian | Grandmaster Ideas, Setups and Principles

Hi guys, in this opening video I will present to you one of the very first Sicilian I started to play which was the Kan. This is a continuation of my previous Kan Video, this time covering the Hedgehog formation for Black. Since most of the time the starting moves don't change for Black, I will just jump straight into the respective ideas.
