    As the title suggests, King Hunts. Three of them. The first from a recent GM game
    and the next two come from recent RHP games. (actually two very good games.)

    A geography lesson....Where exactly is Batumi?

    Then a blunder by Caruana that was foreseen by an RHP player 13 years ago.

    A bedtime story about Queen winning traps.
    ...and no they did not live happily ever after.

    Thanks Ponderable, always enjoy looking for a new angle/excuse to post a blog.

    Of all the good players Fabiano plays some howlers at Blitz. I reckon this is because he
    does a pre-move blunder check in his classical games and has no time to employ it in blitz.

    Look at this game played a few days ago (yesterday) he would never have played
    13...f6 in a classical game. The Rook sac was obvious. The game is over in 18 moves.
