"Got my queen trapped. Okay, time to start playing now."

aronian kept the initiative building up an attack, and didnt allow grishuk to counterplay despite having the Queen. The funny thing With aronian, he Plays imaginative and creative and takes o lots of risks doing so, which is evident in this game.

@ICarnag3I its an english opening,but Aronian replied with 1..c6,playing a Caro kann, and Grischuk liked to stay with the english playing 2.Nf3 and later g3.Looks like white sacrificed a pawn but no,he can win it later with more development,note that the d pawn moved two times in the opening(black) and white continues developing:)

Fabuloso el juego de ambos. En el 9.18 se nota el "el fin de los tiempos"...

you can tell by their body movement aronian won, probably on time. grischuk tried to slam his last move down in obvious time trouble.

Ну Аронян! Ну надо же!

absolutely fantastic Aronian

great levon! n°2

I like the way Aronian coughed at the end of the game after the hand shake lol!

There is Marc Zukerberg whatching!

Brillante Aronian 😎

The position is equal, but he lost on time. Great comeback by Aronian!

grishcuk is the best rapid chess player

I was just analyzing this game earlier and whenever I analyze a blitz game, I always see things and wonder how much more intricate and in-depth that same position could be in a game with more time. I think those positions are somewhat not utilized to full potential during the average match, unless done from memory.

Man, Aronian is mad!! :)

poor clocks being abused and beaten, we need to stop this!

Are you talking about the final position? That position isn't equal - White's getting killed, after ...Rxh2, etc.

Neil Armstrong, watching top left, gets a call from NASA at 3:50 ;)

1:30 grischuk in his mind : what the...

good game
