Another mystery in the Sicilian Dragon
A mediocre +5 -5 performance in the May 1, 2018 Chess.com Titled Tuesday blitz https://www.chess.com/news/view/petrosian-wins-titled-tuesday-ahead-of-giri-caruana (with 2 games lost by disconnection).
But, a number of the curious Siclians, including three Fischer/Velimirovic attack wins
And some Dragons. The brain collapse after 9.0–0–0 d5 10.Nxc6 bxc6 11.Bh6 Bxh6 12.Qxh6 Rb8 13.e5 Nd7 and now 14.Rd4!? Re8 15.e6! as IM Ivic played against me.
GM Jones mentioned this idea in his book - https://www.qualitychess.co.uk/ebooks/TheDragon2-excerpt.pdf, excerpt - but, likely, underestimated it. Don't expect that this line will be easy for your engines, by the way.
