As some of you might have noticed, GM Alexander Morozevich played his first games on chess.com yesterday in the titled tuesday tournament.  Although I was not watching the games live, I happened to see kchessk's youtube video of Morozevich's games and wanted to post this amazing game he played in the first round verses CM roldieyi.  

 

 
This is what chess play looks like when you have total confidence and conviction in your calculations and intuition.  The positional Queen Sacrifice is amazing as well as the mating sequence with the minor pieces and the rook.  One of the most impressive moments of the game was when Morozevich declined a winning material advantage by taking the bishop on C1 for a very long and difficult to see mating attack.  All in a 3/2 game!
