Damn, that book is expensive. I could not find a reasonable priced copy of it.

@DP_Droopy: Yeah, its very expensive. Luckily, I got a copy while it was still in print!
@Fiveofswords: I totally agree, I've never seen the IQP approached as it was in this game. Of all the games from the book this game has been the most atypical. If you check out the other videos, think the plays will looks somewhat more typical.
Alexander Baburin's Winning Pawn Structure--an awesome book which covers everything you'd ever want to know about playing with and against the IQP. I have found it amazing how many different typical sacrifices there are in IQP position: Sacing Knights on f7, and Bishops on h6 and h7 and sometimes even g6!
In order to really try to solidify the information in Winning Pawn Structures I started making videos on YouTube covering the games from the book with my own analysis and comments.
I think it would be awesome if you guys would check them out and give me some feedback. Here is a link:

Here is the written analysis for the lastest video, but honestly its probably easier to just watch the video. :)
I have also been writing a BLOG with all the games as well which you can find here on Chess.com
