The Anti-Najdorf you dream of · Road to GM, Game 166

I faced a strong WGM in the Najdorf and played one of the most aggressive setups available to white.

I attacked her straigh out of the opening, got a promising position, played a tactical pawn sac that got her thinking for 45 minutes. And didn’t double check my analysis… I played a move I’d intended before starting the combination and it cost me dearly.
