Potpourri and other nonsense!
There seems no stopping Caruana as he mowed down Topalov’s Sicilian with a machine gun! Granted, Topalov was having a bad day…and played poorly an already slightly inferior variation of the Sicilian. As the second part of the Sinquefield Cup gets underway, psychology will play an important part: trying to ‘punish’ Caruana for humiliating the field in the first half will likely just play into his hands…
