Magnus Carlsen's DOUBLE* Bishop Sacrifice vs the Caro-Kann

Featured here is a chess game between Magnus Carlsen and Wang Hao from the 2011 Tata Steel Group A Tournament. Once Carlsen captures Wang Hao's light-squared bishop in the Caro-Kann Advance variation, his plan is to play on the kingside and break with h5, a strategy that is not easily prevented. From move 12 onward, Carlsen plays like Stockfish, eventually sacrificing one bishop and then offering up the other.
