The Grandmasters I have defeated

Chess
It's a chess players dream to be a Grandmaster, and majority of them, including me, are far from realising the dream. However, I have managed to defeat a few GMs, some with excellence, most with luck. So here are some of the games i will remember for the rest of my life

This post is just not about my lucky GM wins, but also some of lucky GM games as well.

  1. First up, GM Zviad Izoria
    We played a few times, and he dominated me mostly, but i did manage to flag him a few times. Here are those games.

    The speed legend thrashed me almost every time, but I did get lucky once

  4. GM David Markosian
    One of the rare occasions where i could say, "I won because I played perfectly (and he blundered)"

    Same story, mere luck
