Think Like Ivanchuk

?
How difficult it is to read the book without using a board. A book with 10/10 readability is a bedtime story, a book with 1/10 is a puzzle book full of variations. Readability doesn’t represent the quality of the book.
?
Usefulness is a measure of how useful the book is for chess improvement within the topic it covers. Books with a high usefulness score should help you improve quicker than those with a low score.

Ivanchuk faced Karjakin with white at the Amber rapid in 2008. After a lot of fireworks, and a long, theoretical sequence that involves a queen sac, they reached this very imbalanced endgame. Ivanchuk has three pawns for the exchange. Can you evaluate properly? Who’s better and why?
