A few people at the club mentioned having played in a simul against Marie Sebag in Dieppe. Marie is currently participating in the 'Cairns Cup' , an invitational tournament for strong female players organised and hosted by the St. Louis Chess and Scholastic Club.
I happened to pick on round 5 of this tournament to watch over the course of a few days, unfortunately Ms. Sebag may go into history for the wrong reasons as she was on the receiving end of a brilliant game by Gunina, and the whole round was full of excitement. I'd heartily recommend looking at this tournament, they games are on the whole much more entertaining than 'SuperGM' matches, and the plans are relatively understandable.
If you don't have time for the full 3-plus hours on YouTube, I see plenty of people have already reviewed the Gunina - Sebag game including the ever-popular 'friend-of-the-club' Simon Williams.
