Renier on Shirov - Kramnik, Wijk Aan Zee, 2011

In this week's lesson, Renier takes a look at an exciting Scotch Game between Alexei Shirov and former World Champion Vladimir Kramnik from the 2011 Wijk Aan Zee tournament. The game featured an unusual line from the Scotch as well as a nice combination of advance preparation and hard work over the board. As always, Renier provides entertaining and instructive commentary. Enjoy!
