  Penguincw: A good start for Caruana. Well, it's rather a good start, or a bad start.
Feb-09-12  messachess: It would seem to have to have been severe time trouble for a GM to miss a two-move combination.
Feb-10-12  Jaburu: Makogonov stratagem: 22.Nd1!!

8.e5 apparently (8....h6? 9.Re1! hxg5 10.Rxe7+ Kf8 11.Bc4 d5 12.Qxd4!). 6....e5 seems to be a (rare) book move, but there are no examples of Black taking the knight after 7.Bg5 in the database.
