London Chess Classic: Carlsen Again; Nakamura Falls With White

In a brutal display of accuracy, Carlsen pushed Ni Hua off the board after Ni Hua ducked the Najdorf with 3.Bb5. See the game below. McShane had better luck against Nakamura with the King's Indian than against Carlsen, and he took the whole point. The other two games ended in draws.
