The Czech GM played far below his usual level. In the diagram position we have an interesting positional problem for black. Most chess players would need at least 10 attempts to find Inarkiev’s subtle move. How would you play?} 1. d4 { [%emt 0:00:00]} Nf6 {[%emt 0:00:00]} 2. c4 {[%emt 0:00:00]} e6 {[%emt 0:00:00]} 3.
