Daniel King: "Fabiano Caruana managed to catch out Magnus Carlsen in the opening of their game at the Norway Chess tournament. The World Champion found himself an hour behind on the clock and with a tricky position to defend. I take a close look at the opening in the light of Caruana's opening novelty and discuss why this line of 1 e4 c5 2 Nf3 Nc6 3 Bb5 has come back into fashion for White.
Apart from that, there is a problem composed by Paul Keres and a study by Grigoriev to test your calculating skills."
