The New World Champion Was Beaten By Yury Bukayev's Old Attack



Readers of this blog are familiar with Yury V. Bukayev very well from his analysis, games etc. posted here. Yury's recent  email provides with a very interesting material! 

Here are interesting news! The new World Champion has been beaten by Top GM A.Giri in C53-C54 by my old attack, in fact!

Thus, 7.c3! is Mr. Giri's transposition into my old attack (Part 2 of my old work on C53-C54, its summary was published on "Bruno's Chess Problem of the Day")...
Approximately 20 years ago the famous Soviet and Russian grandmaster, maestro of an opening analysis Igor A. Zaitsev said: "These Yury Bukayev's analyses are strong. They should be published..." I'm congratulating dear grandmaster with his 85th birthday very warmly!
Also, if it is interesting, one of commentators (S. Simpson) says about her Jerome-ish idea for this game:
 "Ding playing 14...Bxf2+ The idea being 15.Kxf2 or 15 Qxf2 then 15...Nxe4 (when the Knight was on d2 it prevented this idea.) and Black can play Qxg5. <...>
I fished about 14...Bxf2+ for a while before deciding 14...Bxf2+ 15.Ke2 and after the f1 Knight moves Rf1 is coming."
