After two inaccuracies, black is in a little bit of trouble.

Gelfand is playing active and unpredictable for engines, I like it !

Nb2 was cool and I was thinking of it at my low level.

So nice game. Houdini is going back to +0.45 to that Gelfand was not stupid and was not playing blunders.

[Houdini]

On the stream they were discussing what would happen after 28...Nb4.
Houdini gives: 29.Nxc2 Rxc2 30. Re1! Rxa2+ 31.Kb1 Bf5+ 32.Kc1 with large advantage for white.
