Giri, A. – Bok, B.

2752 2014 · Black wins (resignation, time or agreement)

Modern Benoni, 2014: Giri (2752) meets Bok (2591) with the g3 fianchetto, and the game turns into a wing-versus-wing fight soon after 16...b5. The engine flags no turning point at all: both sides stayed on track, 89% at-least-good moves for White, 88% for Black. So nothing single-handedly decided this one — Black simply collected central pawns, then kept nibbling on the kingside with the knight all the way to 50...Ne4 and the win. The takeaway: you can lose a game without an obvious mistake, purely because the opponent holds the initiative move after move in an unbalanced Benoni structure.
