Hou Yifan v Krambo, Dortmund 2015

Sort:
RoobieRoo

Was kibitzing on chessbomb and was really pleased (after the trauma of the Norway classic and those tedious grandmaster draws) to behold the delectable Hou Yifan and Vladimir Kramnik playing a game in the Dortmund chess tournament.

Kramnik gradually improved his pieces and Hou Yifan was struggling to find good squares for hers, then this position arose.

Can anyone shed any light on why Hou Yifan rejected the Queen for two rooks line as I really need to understand why. Many thanks for taking the time - Robbie
