Armenian grandmaster Levon Aronian has suffered the first defeat in
the London Candidates Round 9 vs. Boris Gelfand (Israel).
A leader emerges - naturally it's Carlsen. The Norwegian super-star
must count how many lives he has remaining, as he certainly used one
up today to salvage his game against Kramnik. Aronian fell prey to an
emerging Gelfand, which gives Carlsen solo lead. Svidler and Grischuk
wanted the attention all for themselves by playing a spectacular game,
while Ivanchuk ground down Radjabov with technical precision.
The next game is on March 27. Aronian will play vs. Ivanuchuk. The
winner will earn the right to challenge current world champion Vishy
Anand for the title.
