Solution

Today's position is from the on-going Corus 2006 tourney, and features two of today's top-GMs, proving once again that it happens to the best of us:

Aronian - Van Wely
Corus Chess 2006 Wijk aan Zee, 2006

1.d4 d5 2.c4 c6 3.Nf3 Nf6 4.e3 e6 5.Bd3 Nbd7 6.0-0 Bd6 7.Nc3 0-0 8.e4 dxc4 9.Bxc4 e5 10.Be3 b5 11.Bb3 Bb7 12.Nh4 g6 13.Bh6 exd4 14.Bxf8 Nxf8 15.e5 Bxe5 16.Nf3 Qd6 17.Nxe5 Qxe5 18.Re1 Qd6 19.Qd3 Rd8 20.Ne4 Nxe4 21.Qxe4 Rd7 22.Qe5 Qb4 23.Qf6 d3 24.Re8 d2 25.Rf1 Diagram

25...Qxb3 26.axb3 d1=Q

and Black went on to win in 86 moves, but already the advantage is decisive.  Black's simple removal-of-the-guard tactic is an instructive one.
