| WannaBe: <dhotts> if 31. ... Nxe6 then
32. Qd7+ (King only have f6 or f8)
if 32. ... Kf6
33. Qxe6+ Kg5 and will be strangled by pawns pushing up. (g and h pawns supported by king) if 32. ... Kf8
33. fxe6 and white have pawns on c and e coming down with Queen sittin on d7 |

| tamar: In an interview, Aronian explains the sacrifice
<I recall I was trying to impress a girl, and have her say, what a move, what a player! Then I played it against Bu, and sacrificed to Filippov. I hope this sacrifice comes into fashion. In general, I learned that varoation from Gabriel (Sargissian)-as well as a majority of my other opening variations> from Misha Interviews...on

| Marmot PFL: <<I recall I was trying to impress a girl, and have her say, what a move, what a player!>
Was that the girl whose boyfriend punched him out? Not essy to find women who care if you are good at chess so I guess they have to fight over them. |

| Chess Classics: Indeed, nice game by Aronian. Quite entertaining.
Was #1 Judit Polgar vs Kasimdzhanov, 2005? Regards,

| notyetagm: <Chess Classics> Heck no, that game was not even nominated. The winner was the famous Topalov v Anand game from M-Tel 2005. |

| whatthefat: Astonishing game, and not at all easy to understand all the nuances. The position after black's 24th move is quite stunning. |

| Chess Classics: <notyetagm> Oh, I see. I guess it makes sense, but I didn't really start following current proffesional chess until Adams-Hydra. Regards,

| think: What if 20. ... dxe4 or 21. ... dxe4?
there seem to be many options for white, but which is the best?
21. d5
21. c7
21. Nxg6
or some other move? |

| Plato: This is my favorite Aronian game, even more than his win over Anand at Linares. A real gem. |

| Rodrigo Gutierrez: This is truly a breathtaking game. I just played it at "Guess the move" and I was taken 14 points off in all for not finding the best tactics! But then again, in this particular game, who would... |

| arsen387: I think the exclamation 'holy sh**' is quite appropriate here :) So much tactics here, an echo from 19th century, where sacrifices are pouring one after another. Long time will pass till I'll be able to understand this game. Starting from 26.Bxe7+ it was absolutely crazy |

| adair10: Check this more recent <absolutely crazy> game Aronian vs A Volokitin, 2008 |

| luzhin: Very spectacular: but it's not at all clear why Aronian didn't play fxg6 on move 23 or 24. This seems crushing, and follows on logically from 21.f4 and 22.f5. Indeed, it is also strange that Popov didn't play gxf5 while he had the chance rather than just move his Bishop pointlessly backwards and forwards on the a6-c8 diagonal. |
|

| ex0duz: <@luzhin:> Yep, i was wondering why Aronian didn't play 23.fxg6 also and instead played Rh5. He had 3 or 4 chances to subsequently play it(and it would have been crushing, Rybka gives +4.50 at move 23, and even over +3 and +2 still one or two moves later), but he never did.. Both players must have missed it. Chess blindness happens to even the best of the best(remember, even Kramnik missed mate in 1 and got mated hehe). |
