This interesting super-grandmaster game in the FIDE Grand Prix of 2014 features the early f3 move which is an interesting idea as an Anti-Gruenfeld system. But the opponent can also play c5 as this game shows which would transpose into Saemich Kings Indian defence territory. Grischuk is an exponent of the Kings Indian defence and perhaps would have been comfortable in such positions. But this game takes a rather unique early detour with White capturing away from the center for very concrete reasons such as the d6 square. Grischuk plays very dynamically and addresses Nb5-d6 concerns with an early Ba6 offering a pawn sacrifice. The pawn sacrifice concept is persisted with later, and Grischuk seems to have a very dangerous position for White to handle later when the pawn is finally taken. One inaccurate move from Fabiano Caruana resulted in the total meltdown of his King safety. This led to Fabiano Caruana having to give up his queen for rook. Although playing with Rook and Bishop and seemingly dangerous queenside pawns might of in theory have promised some chances, in the end Black's queen and pawns were far too much for White to handle.
