Yes, it was horrible to watch this game. Especially after Hossa had this nice
center (pawns on d4, e4, d5, e5) and a cool attack on the king side. It doesnt
happen very often that he loses a game where he had a >+5 score for several
moves.

Can you give me the PV starting with Qg6+? Does Qg6+ only delay the queen
exchange or does DT have a different plan?

Best wishes,
Steffen.
