This is hot off the press from Corus (Wijk Aan Zee) 2006.
[D]q4rk1/2n1bppp/3p4/r3nPP1/4P2P/NpQ1B3/1P4B1/1K1R3R w - - 5 25
Black (Anand) has just played 24. ... Ne8-c7, a move which Rybka beta (the only
engine I've bothered to test) thinks is a blunder and gleefully goes for 25.
Qxc7 as White.
The result is actually a strong attack for Black down the Queen's side.
Although the game isn't over as I type, Black ought to win, IMHO, barring a
blunder. I bet this has been said before, with many a commentator going home
red-faced!
I just thought others might want to test their pet engines on it, as it seems to
be an awkward move to find.
