Yervant1 Posted February 2, 2007 Report Share Posted February 2, 2007 HAKOBYAN BECAME THE BEST IN GIBRALTAR [08:10 pm] 01 February, 2007 Levon Aronyan's success in the Wijk aan Zee chess tournament t was immediately followed by Vladimir Hakobyan's victory. The latter has become the winner of the Gibraltar chess tournament with 7.5 points. Hakobyan beat his rival Sakolov in the previous round thus becoming the leader of the tournament. In the last 9th round Hakobyan played with Kuzubov and beat him in the 23rd step, thus moving up to the first place. By the way, at the beginning of the tournament Hakobayan was beaten by Irina Krush and seemed to be far from the victory. But the Armenian chess player could regain his losses in the next rounds. The tournament was held by the Swiss model, that's to say, only the rivals having equal points met in each round. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MosJan Posted February 23, 2007 Report Share Posted February 23, 2007 ARONYAN TIED WITH LEKO * article's photo It is already the forth time Armenian grand master Levon Aronyan has tied the meeting in the chess super tournament Morelia-Linares. Aronyan’s rival in the 4th round was Leko. The meeting was tied in the 18th step. Taking into account the fact that Leko is in close relationship with his Armenian counterparts (Leko’s wife is the daughter of Arshak Petrosyan, the coach of the Armenian team), the outcome of the meeting was quite logical. Topolov also tied with Swidler in the 4th round. The leader of the tournament Anand beat Morozevich with white draughts. The meeting Ivanchuk-Karlsen was rather surprising as Karlsen beat Ivanchuk with black draughts. Currently, Anand tops the fixture table with three points. Karlsen is in the second place with 2.5 points. Aronyan, Swidler, Ivanchul and Leko share the third place with two points each. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

abass80 Posted May 6, 2007 Report Share Posted May 6, 2007 (edited) Aronian defeated Kramnik 4-2! Edited May 6, 2007 by abass80 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abass80 Posted May 7, 2007 Report Share Posted May 7, 2007 /PanARMENIAN.Net/ Armenian chess player Levon Aronian defeated the World Champion Vladimir Kramnik 4-2 in a fine display of active play, tactics, and execution. After losing the first game, the young Armenian reeled off three wins in a row, and then held a dramatic game 5 draw to win the match. In game 5, Aronian came out fighting. Needing only one draw in two games to wrap up the match (leading 3-1 after the 1st 4 games), Aronian played an unorthodox opening, emerging with a precarious position out of the opening. He defended well, secured the draw, and in doing so, won the match. In the sixth game Kramnik was unable to capitalize on a promising position, and the game spiraled into a wild finish where no one was able to predict any moves, and any of three results (1-0, 1/2/-1/2, or 0-1) was possible. The final drawn position resembled a study-like position, with white’s menacing pawns counterbalancing black’s queen. The final result, 4-2, was a well-deserved victory for the Armenian number one.

Alexander Grischuk won the other decided game, against compatriot Vladimir Malakhov. Judit Polgar was close to a traumatic first-round loss with white against Evgeny Bareev, but managed to save the day. Illustrated report. Round one report Results Round 4: Wednesday, February 21st Magnus Carlsen 0-1 Levon Aronian Peter Leko ½-½ Mikhail Gurevich Boris Gelfand ½-½ Rustam Kasimdzhanov Ruslan Ponomariov ½-½ Sergei Rublevsky Gata Kamsky ½-½ Etienne Bacrot Alexander Grischuk 1-0 Vladimir Malakhov Judith Polgar ½-½ Evgeny Bareev Michael Adams ½-½ Alexei Shirov Replay and download games Aronian beats Carlsen with Black, and Grischuk beats Malakhov in the day’s other decisive game, whilst the other six games are drawn after hard battles. Playchess was there to broadcast the action, on what Nigel Short might be tempted to describe as a day of peripatetic potentates. Carlsen-Aronian was a great start for the Black player. Aronian equalized comfortably from the opening, and soon had some initiative, with his pressure down the f-file.
