Nick Risko teaches the Rossolimo Variation of the Sicilian Defense, which is 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bb5. White’s usual intention is to play Bxc6, giving Black doubled pawns.

Sicilian Defense, Rossolimo Attack: Part 1 | Chess Openings Explained
33.31 in the video "Now we start getting into the real Rossolimo". Finally find where the main variations of this Rossolimo start. What a structural mess this video is.
Can't find a refutation on Qb6? After 3…Qb6 4.Nc3 e6 5. Sxc6! Qxb6 6.d4! stocfish 14 gives +1 and after black takes cxd4 white will win a tempo and castle with 2 pieces and a center pawn in the game against Black queen. Seems like a fairly quick refutation to me
Why do so many grandmasters adopt a bored tone of voice when giving lessons?
Rossolimo is more complicated than open sicilian with much heavier theory although it is often wrongly assumed otherwise.
some of the lines in the beginning were not good at all. has no master games and the engine dislikes it so disregard most of them.
Good work SLC! Democratizing Chess one YTuber at a time…
