« Commentaire de Mark Crowther : L’élégant moment où Karjakin a remporté le blitz «mort subite» contre Grischuk. » (EUROPE-ECHECS)
Aeroflot Rapid Open 2013 Sunday 17th February 2013
Mark Crowther : « …in the final Sergey Karjakin forced down Alexander Grischuk’s flag in an Armageddon tie-break. He only had to avoid perpetual check or mate to win with 6 seconds vs Grischuk 1 second. The game ended up with the board in disarray and Grischuk playing the clock with one hand and the pieces the other which is at the least frowned upon. The fact was he was lost on the clock and Karjakin exploited that as you should if you’re a professional. I’m less convinced these Armageddon games are necessary. Was everybody in such a hurry to leave that at least a couple of 5m+3spm games couldn’t have been scheduled first?… »
A piece fumble by Grischuk cost him two vital seconds and he lost on time the move after.
