2764 2019 · White wins (resignation, time or agreement)

Shakhriyar Mamedyarov, perennial top-10 player and fearless attacker, goes head-to-head with Leinier Dominguez Perez, the Cuban-born (later American) grandmaster celebrated for his vast theoretical knowledge and fierce competitive drive. The Vienna Game might seem a quiet choice, but in the hands of these two warriors it quickly becomes anything but. A high-level clash between seasoned elite tournament players where the smallest inaccuracy can prove fatal.
