How to Surprise the Petrov and How Not do it

ChessAnalysisChess PersonalitiesOver the boardTournament
The Petrov's Defence is one of the hardest openings to beat and Wei Yi and Bluebaum came to the candidates with this opening vs 1.e4. Caruana found a interesting way to put troubles to Matthias beating him and in counterpart Esipenko Made a sideline vs Wei Yi to lost so so easy with the white pieces
