For our final week we will be taking a look at a game played by Hikaru Nakamura and Alireza Firouzja. After delivering this tactical blow, Hikaru checked the sequence of moves he made to see if he won a brilliancy prize, and the engine laughed in his face, claiming white had a sizeable advantage. Given more time, the engine realized who was better at chess. In fact, if you were to put this position into an engine, you might see for yourself that it takes a bit of convincing for the computer to realize the true evaluation of this game. Can you find the right sequence in this position? (Black to move)
