The game R Praggnanandhaa v. Anish Giri from the Superbet Rapid in Warsaw features one of the sharpest lines in the Trompowsky. The 18-year-old Indian prodigy introduced a new concept by activating his rook via the third rank, which confused his opponent, who quickly went astray. Fascinating stuff!
