BUCHAREST — Armenia’s GM Levon Aronian defeated Russia’s Sergey Karjakin on Sunday in a playoff to win the Superbet Rapid & Blitz Grand Chess Tour in Bucharest. With his victory, the Aronian secured a spot in the London playoffs next month.
The first game in the playoff ended in a draw, and then Aronian won the second to take the Superbet Rapid & Blitz trophy home.
This result was highly disappointing for Karjakin. The Russian GM needed a clear victory in Bucharest to overtake Maxime Vachier-Lagrave in the overall standings and came incredibly close.
