Corus post-post game analysis

Yes! Hikaru won game 1 today against grischuk. Good start.

Now it seems a bit wierd to show videos from last year while this tournament is going on. (See my two earlier posts.) What the heck, I'll show some anyway, hopefully for your enjoyment. Here's something pretty interesting to me from the skittles room at Corus in Jan 2010. It is Smeets (who spanked Shirov today) against Dominguez going over their crazy game in round 7. The game score follows. Wild, huh?
