Wesley So vs. Levon Aronian, Sinquefield Cup 2015, 0-1

A brilliant attacking game by GM Levon Aronian who also won the Sinquefield Cup in the end. GM Wesley So neglected development especially castling. One mistake and Aronian caught So's king in the middle, offered a "free" Knight for the crushing attack, and opened up lines to bring remaining forces to the attack.

So, develop your pieces. Park your king to a nice spot! See what I did there? (¬‿¬)
