Game of the Week #379

This week there was a lot of rapid and blitz, but to me most interesting remains classical chess. Arguably, the coolest games were played at the Polish league. The game we'll study tonight, was a sharp theoretical battle between two of the most enterprising grandmasters around: Huschenbeth vs Harikrishna.

The live show is free to watch, and available on-demand for ChessBase Premium accounts.

Warm-up question: What would you play here with Black?
