It was in November 16, 2010, the World Blitz Championship was held at Moscow Russia. In the event there was an infamous game between the Russian chess elite grandmaster, Sergey Karjakin and the Russian chess grandmaster, Dmitry Adreikin. Both were well known for their title, top 25 in global ranking, and being child prodigies in chess. 

Why did Karjakin resigned?

Analysis

In this infamous game, white opens with the English and the game was smooth, for a few moves in.

The Poisonous Queen

Until the queen joins the game. 

For those who thought it was a free queen, you are getting checkmated

This is because after Nf6

The Trapped King

For those who chooses to castle, it would be mate in 5


Even if you did found the best reply for Karjakin, pawn f6. It still did been a winning position for Adreikin. This is mostly from Karjakin's king cannot castle and can't rapidly develop his pieces. While Andreikin rook is ready to enter the game and attack the f-file.

Try to finish the game off for Andreikin if the game did continues
