Praggnanandhaa, in this game, takes on the coach of the St. Louis University, Varuzhan Akobian. When Akobian opens the game with 1-D4, Prag responds back with the Bogo Indian. The game is extremely complicated, with Akobian matching Prag for move for move. In the end we have a stunning Queen Sacrifice. Check out this game along with the commentary by IM Sagar Shah.
