Gara plays for a quick kingside assault with a fast g4 and grabs a ton of kingside space for a squeeze. Eventually white infiltrates on the h-file and decides with the kingside passed pawns.

Rudolf gets ready for a kingside attack and then unleashes a surprise to decide the game in convincing fashion.

Black has reinforced the kingside with 23..g6 and it is hard to see how white will continue with a direct attack. What do you recommend for white now?
