Kibitzer's Corner
Dec-06-20  MordimerChess: Qf3-Qa3 maneuver by Wesley put black into a rather worse position. That's another interesting idea against Sicilian Defense.

Enjoy!

Dec-07-20  Ulhumbrus: Is 10...b6 necessary? As White has displaced his queen and knight and threatens nothing this suggests that Black can simply leave White's queen and knight where they are and continue his development by 10...Be7
Dec-07-20  MordimerChess: <Ulhumbrus> Yes, 10... Be7 is the main idea here. But there are still crazy ideas to be played like 11. Bg5 immediately
Jan-01-21  cehertan: Why not 30...g6 and ...Kg7. Very impressive stuff by Wesley So though. Magnus the Great doesn’t get hammered like that too often.
