Jan-29-17		Mr. V: This is why I'm a fan of Dima despite his frequently boring draws

Jan-29-17		shintaro go: Just when you thought Aronian is back to form, he loses horribly against Andreikin. Makes you wonder if his window to become WC has truly passed.

Feb-04-17		pilobolus: Somewhere arround move 25 it appeared to me that Aronian is winning...

May-04-21		fisayo123: Nice game by Andreikin. One of the underrated players of his generation.
