    This seems like a great example of the war strategy "create dilemma not problems" problems have solutions dilemma's have no great solution and drag the problem on. Another way to say this is "to take is a mistake" instead of pouncing on the weaknesses he exposes he delays taking advantage of them until he absolutely has to which keeps the dilemma in Hikarus head

    Wow, f6 was first thing that came to mind for me. It blocks h5 from going h6 to support g6 pawn if it pushes. Black bishop would become tied to the h8 square if not. This would lead to either losing d2 or Hikaru getting a queen.

    I didn't see how it was winning, but it seemed quite obvious to me that by not playing h6 I would be losing. It seems to me that the greatness lies not in finding h6 (what those commentators were thinking, I can't imagine... I'm definitely not great, and judging from the comments, lots of others found this, too) but in the ability to follow up with a series of moves that eventually forced Hikaru into submission.
