World Champion Anna Ushenina in trouble for a second time in a white game
Challenger Hou Yifan playing with determination and precision
Black’s 15...Rc8 forced the World Champion
to sink into deep thought. After 40 minutes
Anna came out with dubious decision which turned out to be the start of
her troubles.
