Game Of the Week: Gelfand vs. Giri - Tal Mémorial

Opening: E60: King's Indian: 3.g3

Player(s): Gelfand, Giri

Most fans would not predict that Anish Giri would be one of the early leaders at the Tal Memorial because that would require him to not draw a game. Though much maligned for his low rate of decisive games, Giri took the fight to Boris Gelfand with great energy, and the Israeli veteran could not find answers.
