This is a game between Dmitry Andreikin and Sergey Karjakin from the 2010 World Blitz Chess Championship. Super Grandmaster Sergey Karjakin is surprisingly beaten in only 10 moves. Despite the games’ brevity, it remains an instructive one which shows how white can quickly capitalize on early weaknesses on black’s kingside. The critical moment out of this English Opening, Three Knights System surfaces after 6. Bg5. Black’s 6th move appears perfectly natural, however it is a blunder which allows white a spectacular winning sequence.
