Sep-18-10  wordfunph: Popescu beat Levon Aronian in 1995, his greatest game ever..

C Popescu vs Aronian, 1995

May-23-15  zanzibar: This player is quite likely deceased.

<NIC> lists him as FIDE ID 1202480:

https://www.newinchess.com/Popescu_...

This ID is currently delisted on FIDE (implying the player is deceased).

There is another player, <Cristian Popescu (dob 1979, FIDE 1250302)>, which could be a source of confusion.
