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.
