Candidates and the The One-Eyed Trap

Another moving book cover, another crossword!

A look at a couple of candidates games leading
onto RHP games in similar positions.

How have I linked all together.

Reti (a crossowrd clue) has a game in the moving book gif book

In the Caruana v Svidler game you showed a drawing repetition ending in Kh2 ..Rh5+ Kg3 ..Rg5+ Kh3?? which wouldn't draw but lose on the spot to ..Rh1+ Qh2 ..Rh5+ winning the Queen outright. White obviously has to play te King back to h2 and not h3 in order to repeat the position safely..

Thanks .

(fixed. Actually you were meant to spot the flaw in that line as well.)
