Jul-24-05		supertimchan: Is 19.Bxg6 a horrible blunder?

Jul-25-05		ConspTheory06: I'd say so but i think Rxb7 is an even bigger one... yeah his plan to play c3 and pin the bishop doesnt work so i would give it at least a question mark.

Aug-17-05		notyetagm: This game has got to be the worst I have ever seen Karjakin play.

Aug-18-05		ahmadov: It is very unusual to see a player like Karjakin not forseeing a move like 20....Qa5

Sep-25-08		Poisonpawns: Karjakin lost two games really badly to this guy

Feb-11-09		freeman8201: This guy has to be lacking on how to play tactically. I can't see how he missed 20...Qa5! It reminds me of <Hikaru Nakamura> stating he was proud to have a plus recorded against Sergey Karjakin <5 wins 1 loss 3 draws> and being able to "out play him in the middle game" using middle game strategies. I believe he also stated Sergey having superior opening knowledge. This information came from Chesslife (USA)

Feb-11-09		freeman8201: I play the Pirc and I dislike Nc6, but White can't punish Black for playing it. When I face the Austrian attack I play Na6.
