The starting position was taken from the game between GM Hikaru Nakamura (@GMHikaru ) and GM Maxime Vachier-Lagrave in 2008. Young Hikaru easily converted that game, can Botez sisters repeat that result against Hikaru himself? Drop a like and tell us in the comments, if you’d like to see more collabs with Hikaru! Check out the story behind this game and Hikaru’s POV: https://youtu.be/VdLbA18JUnI !
