Press conference Aronian

28 January 2007 19:39 PM | Last modified: 22:51

And then there was that third person who also ended first in the tournament. Levon Aronian beat Sergei Tiviakov convincingly and was also prepared to show it. And he answers some questions afterwards as well. For today it’s our last post, now we’re heading for the prize giving. We hope that after Corus you’ll stay tuned for your daily update of chess news at Chessvibes!

  7. johnt on 28 January 2007 20:48 PM

    overall wonderful coverage, especially the videos. You need to work on the games a bit, the moves lag behind and ‘refresh’ doesn’t seem to work.

  8. johnt on 28 January 2007 20:50 PM

    oh yes, and Aronian was the true star….

  9. Alec Cheney on 28 January 2007 21:42 PM

    Thank you very much for the videos. I found it very interesting to see the players discussing their games

  10. Menua on 28 January 2007 22:48 PM

    Levon Aronyan! You are the best! Me and all Armenians are very happy, you cannot imagine how we are happy!!!! Good luck, our titan! Levon jan, tsavd tanem! Hzor es

    Great Tournament

    Thank you to all, making this one of the best chess tournaments in the world.
    My congratulations go to all winners, especially to Aronian, the only player who didn’t loose a single game during the entire tournament.

    Bravo Levon!!!

    God Bless you All!

  13. Richie D on 28 January 2007 23:17 PM

    Thanks for the videos Chessvibes, they have really put a new dimention to this tournament (and hopefully others as well). By the way, what was the prize money like?

  14. Andranik on 28 January 2007 23:25 PM

    Hi, these videos have made this the most enjoyable tournament to follow! Thank you.

  16. Kevin on 29 January 2007 0:30 AM

    “especially to Aronian, the only player who didn’t loose a single game during the entire tournament”

    Actually Kramnik also did not lose a game.

  17. Henry Brown on 29 January 2007 2:06 AM

    Kevin,

    I was talking about the top 3 players, that’s why ONLY Aronian.

    Sorry, Kramnik is not in top 3 maybe next year.

    Good luck.

    too bad you didnt get the full point yesterday so you would be the true champion without sharing your 1st place… TOOO BAD. I was really hoping to see you in the 1st place. But this is not bad as well. GOOD JOB

  34. Alen on 30 January 2007 0:13 AM

    It was really good tournment.I congratulate all the
    winners.But to be honest I’m impressed by Aronyan.He is a real man and prof.It was kind of critical moment for him before 13th round,but he could manage the win.He really deserved to be the firs.+ he never lost any game during intire tournment+ won one of the winners Rajabov.So the tournment table shows who is the real winner
    1.Aronyan
    2.Topalov
    3.Rajabov
