| Winter: Hail to the Champ!!
34. Re5 ... A rook for a knight, and all else fits perfectly into the puzzle. Congratulations! More championship(s) to come...
Regards to Arianne... |

That was a *brilliant* move for Aronian, 34  e1-e5!!. |

| Chess Carnival: Aronian, Anand and Topalov. IMO they alone can make the best possible combinations for WC matches. I might like Kramnik but the guys here are just magical and explosive. |

| acirce: Anand on Aronian: <As far as his openings and the structures he strives for are concerned, he is positionally oriented. But he plays these positions very tactically. Though he opens with 1.d4, he treats these positions like an e4-player. If things get complicated he always sets small traps for his opponents. He is a very gifted tactician, calculates excellently and hardly ever misses chances offered to him. All this makes him extremely dangerous.> http://www.chesstigers.de/ccm9_inde... Ok, these weren't the most profound observations ever, but I thought it could be worth posting. |

| adair10: It is interesting that according to Anand the "cheap tactician" is in reality a positional player. I agree with Anand (as if he cares about my opinion) that Aronian is strong positional player. In order to successfully play unconventional positions that Aronian often gets (or deliberately strives for)he must relie on the positional vision because calculating multitude of combinations in such positions is much harder. |

| chancho: Does anyone think that Levon will become world champ someday? I think Carlsen is a no miss, but I'm not that sure about the young Armenian. |

| KKDEREK: Thanks <acirce> ..Nice interview. I personally love read GM's interviews . They tell us more than what we kibitzers trying to speculate everyday. <he is positionally oriented. But he plays these positions very tactically> I liked that. |

In the meantime, you know, Im already miss some computer program vs some Top GM match. Id like to see the younger generation, born in computer era against this engines. What about Deep Shredder vs Maguns Carlsen?
or
Aronian X Zappa?

| blacksburg: Aronian has clearly shown that he can play with the best in the world and beat them. but i don't think he has that killer instinct or burning ambition like, for instance, topalov. he just seems so laid back. of course, i've never met the guy, so i'm just speculating, i could be totally wrong. and he clearly made a decision to fight for the win in the last round of nalchik. i suppose my view of his killer instinct or lack thereof is driven by his always playing the marshall attack. it's like someone plays 1.e4, and he says, cool, easy draw. if you want to qualify for the WC, it really helps to fight for wins with black. heck, vishy won the title on the strength of his play with black. i like aronian's chess a lot, and i always follow him when he's active in tournaments, but i'm not going to hold my breath waiting for him to become WC. |

| adair10: <blacksburg> <i don't think he (Aronian) has that killer instinct>
The same thing people were saying about Anand - the World Champion. I believe it is about destiny. If Aronian (or any other strong player) is destined to become World Champion, then it will happen. Too many things have to line up right in order for anybody win championship. Pure strength is not enough. |

| timhortons: He just won Amber and Nalchik, to become a world champion is not impossible for him. |

| blacksburg: <The same thing people were saying about Anand - the World Champion.> i'll repeat - i could be wrong, i've never met aronian, maybe he wants to kill everyone and i just can't tell, i could be wrong. for what it's worth, i don't believe in destiny. when Anand was working all those hours on the semi-slav line he used to beat kramnik, he certainly wasn't counting on destiny to deliver the title to him. he was counting on hard work. |

| adair10: <he was counting on hard work.> Correct, but there are at least another strong 8-10 guys who are working as hard, maybe even harder. Experts say that Korchnoi was as talented and hardworking player as his contemporaries, but never became a World Champion |

| notyetagm: <thepesimist: maybe it was because of his terrible performance last year> Any explanation for Aronian's *terrible* winless(!) -4 last year at M-Tel? +0 =6 -4(!) from Aronian!! GF problems? Sickness? Any ideas? |
