The Grandmasters I have defeated
It's a chess players dream to be a Grandmaster, and majority of them, including me, are far from realising the dream. However, I have managed to defeat a few GMs, some with excellence, most with luck. So here are some of the games i will remember for the rest of my lifeThis post is just not about my lucky GM wins, but also some of lucky GM games as well.
- First up, GM Zviad Izoria
We played a few times, and he dominated me mostly, but i did manage to flag him a few times. Here are those games.https://lichess.org/u4HFje4vhttps://lichess.org/PMUnk61Zhttps://lichess.org/Dc9Y8TRp/blackhttps://lichess.org/CDV5XTCP/black - Next up, GM Brandon Jacobson
The speed legend thrashed me almost every time, but I did get lucky oncehttps://lichess.org/DtcgcDbp - Next up, GM Georgey Pilavov
Same story, just got lucky a few times!https://lichess.org/6i6DBS65https://lichess.org/s63D3sWs/black - GM David Markosian
One of the rare occasions where i could say, "I won because I played perfectly (and he blundered)"https://lichess.org/vip4prdB - GM Nijat Abasov
Same story, mere luckhttps://lichess.org/LwEGVIPx - GM Ginger GM (I don't know his real name )
This one had come in 3 check, that too after many losseshttps://lichess.org/sidzz5mA/black - GM Nihal Sarin
Possibly the biggest of them all. Lucky againhttps://lichess.org/ZhKQUvQ5 - GM Gevorg Harutjunyan
The latest of them allhttps://lichess.org/sy7MCEeE/black
