An Interesting But Unsound Sac in the Gelfand-Inarkiev Match
Saturday, August 5, 2017 at 10:20AM
Ernesto Inarkiev equalized the scores in his match with Boris Gelfand with a win in game 3. This was a rapid game, and as such he was able to get away with an interesting but ultimately unsound sac. (Of course, if he had had more time, he would have realized that it was unsound and wouldn't have played it.) Here's the game, with my notes to the relevant portion.
Addendum: game 4 was drawn, so the score is tied at two points apiece.
