Annotated games in the Makogonov Grünfeld? I would appreciate references to sources, be they books or any other sort of media, that contain annotated games in the Makogonov Variation of the Grünfeld Defense (two possible move-orders for which are given below):

[FEN ""]

1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 d5 4.e3 (4.Nf3 Bg7 5.e3 O-O 6.b4) Bg7 5.b4


I would imagine that some books specifically on the Grünfeld would have what I'm after, but I don't know that literature well at all, and the couple I've looked at don't have tons of info. For instance, The Kaufman Repertoire for Black &amp; White proposes the Grünfeld against 1.d4, but the sum total of its coverage of the Makogonov (unless I missed something) is to give the following single line assessment, with no words or additional analysis:

[FEN ""]

1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 d5 4.e3 Bg7 5.Nf3 O-O 6.b4 c6 7.Bb2 a5 8.b5 a4 9.Ba3 Be6 $10


I mention that only as a fact, not as criticism, since the Makogonov doesn't seem to be regarded as a critical test for the Grünfeld, and Kaufman has to choose where to focus.

Avrukh's Grandmaster Repertoire 8: Grünfeld Defence, Volume One gives more to chew on, offering 4+ solid pages on the Makogonov in tree-of-variations form, and it mentions a handful of games where some of the lines come from. But still, that's not quite what I'm after; I'd like to find some Makogonov Variation games that are annotated qua complete games, in order to get a "feel" for this variation. So, to recap:


  Can someone point me to some complete, annotated games in the Makogonov Grünfeld?
chesspublishing.com has seven well-annotated (by GMs Glenn Flear and Neil McDonald) games starting with 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 d5 4.e3 Bg7 5.Nf3 O-O 6.b4, ranging from 1999 to 2009. They're not free, though.

The games are:


Rabrenovic - Atalik 1999
Aleksandrov - Oral 2000
Bruzon Batista - Sutovsky 2004
Suvrajit - Harika 2004
Georgiev - Holzke 2007
Akobian - Perelshteyn 2007
Akobian - Ponomariov 2009


All have lots of verbal annotations and variations, at about the level of detail you'd expect to see in a opening book that is organized by annotated games.
