📘 9.h4
A novelty by Karjakin.The main line is 9.Bc4, which also supports the d4-d5 push.

Kramnik's gambling is refuted by Kariakin precise defence.

📕 16...Na7!
The vintage blockade and further reserves can be brought in. The center pawns might appear to be going nowhere fast, but they do restrict White's pieces, and once the queen-side is really secure their time will come!
17.Re1 Ne8! 18.Bc1 Bf6 19.19.Bf4 e5 20.Bd2 d4 with a complicated game.
