Here is a game from the 2009 Moscow Open, IM Zubov - IM Krylov with full annotations and commentary:





This was a very nice game to show the power of the discovery tactical motif in chess. In this game white was able to successfully execute a discovery move (17. Bb5) which forced the win of the black Queen from which black was never able to recover from.
