  tpstar: So this is what Kramnik pulls out in a must-win situation: a Modern/St. George hybrid without ... c5. Interesting.

The live feed showed Grischuk blundering his Queen, then blundering his Rook, then it was drawn. ;>D

May-28-11  cjgone: A transposition into St.Georges defense? I guess it's playable..
Jun-02-11  ReikiMaster: 36.Qb3 Qf8 37.Qd5 looks strong.
Jun-14-11  cjgone: I'm going to save this defense incase I play a game against someone significantly better than me!
