1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.d4 exd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nxc6 bxc6 6.Qe2!?
A very rare move, and a sign of Nakamura's ambitious intentions.
[The main line runs: 6.e5 Qe7 7.Qe2 Nd5 8.c4 , which has been debated a lot at
the top level recently] 6...d6 7.g3 Be7 8.Bg2 0–0 9.0–0 Re8 10.c4 Nd7 11.Be3
Bf6 12.Qc2 Ne5 13.Nd2 Ng4 14.Rae1 Rb8 15.b3 Nxe3 16.Rxe3 c5 After some natural
looking moves from both sides, Kramnik has gained the small advantage of the
bishop pair and he now proceeds to apply some pressure. 17.h3 a5 18.Kh2 a4
