Game of the Week #674
Norway Chess continues to be extremely exciting, with the world's best players competing. The 10-second increment still leads to unusual situations, with several well-played games being spoiled in an unfortunate way.
However, our Game of the Week is an exception: Nakamura controlled the game from start to finish and beat the World Champion.
Gukesh is a fascinating, mysterious player who combines brilliant play with unexpected mistakes.
Warm-up question: What would you play here with Black?
This week's show
In this opening Black opts for active piece play and is not afraid to fight for the initiative from an early stage. One of the many good features of this opening is that Black is often the side which controls the pace of the game.
