Kramnik In Action

I missed it at the time, but there was a blitz event in Moscow called "Armageddon", ostensibly developed for "prime-time TV". (Good luck with that.) It took place from June 11-16, and you can see the whole thing here. Vladimir Kramnik played and defeated Wei Yi (2-0) and Teimour Radjabov (three draws, so he "won" thanks to the Armageddon game) before losing to Ian Nepomniachtchi (he blundered a rook in a drawn position in the first game, and couldn't win the point back in the rematch) and then losing to Sergey Karjakin in the Armageddon game. The event was apparently won by Karjakin.
