Gukesh decides to defend against the …Rxd4 threat by protecting his c2-rook by 25.Qb1. There was nothing better. Ding can now snack a pawn on c3.

Ding is threatening 25…Rxd4. Eliminating the defender of the c2 rook.

Following up on @nairwolf-chess.bsky.social’s idea to share OTB miniatures.

In this game I got the honor to crush the Sicilian Sveshnikov with a typical Bxb5 trick!

Share your games!

Sure! I got to play one of my favourite traps against the Dragon in OTB😎

More about the typical a7, c7, c6 structure. (Which I came to understand is less weak as I thought at first.)

In the Scotch position below. The best move is Bxd6. Simply keeping the isolated c-pawns. The structure a7, c6, d6 would be (surprisingly?) more vulnerable!

Final position of today’s Carlsen vs Caruana Freestyle chess game. (Btw, what happened to the names Chess960 and Fischer Random?) Caruana resigned here.

What is White’s threat?

Cool! Found a similar pattern in an OTB game with the help of Chessbase. But not just as esthetic😉
