  kingscrusher: It seems that 10.c5 wasn't that optimal here, and later Black had an interesting opportunity at 13.f3

Black could have played either Bf6 or the tactical Bh4

Analysis by Stockfish 15 - 3 threads max:

1. ⩱ (-0.61): 13...Bh4 14.Re2 Qf6 15.Na3 f4 16.Nc2 Ng5 17.Bd2 Ne6 18.Be1 Bxe1 19.Rxe1 c6 20.b4 h5 21.Kh1 g5 22.b5 Ng7 23.Qd2 Rfe8 24.bxc6 bxc6 25.Rxe8+ Rxe8 26.Re1 g4 27.Rxe8+ Bxe8

It seems the Petrov's defence has some venom to it when the knight is eyeing f2 - maybe that is part of the reason Caruana plays it sometimes.
