I guess Nick does?
Anyway, they are all in the tournament thread.
I think I will get them from there in my own database.

It was an interesting game, where the MCG came slowly out of his Caro Kann Defense. At the point where it got advantage, it seemed it's queen got cut off, but with a long term knight sacrifice it got out. I thought white was slightly better then, but it turned out well for the MCG. A lot to analyse again to understand certain situations...
