I really liked Ivanchuck's game.
Something struck me.
Both Radjabov and Nakamura,playing black,waste time in the opening to get a piece to a desired place
Radjabov played 6....,Na6 7...,c6 8....,Nc7 9....,Ne6
Nakamura played 6....,Bg4 7....,Bh5 8....,Bg6 and then this bishop parts the field
Karjakin,playing black,wastes no time at all,plays straightforward moves and draws.
Just an observation.
