Attacking the King!!! Carlsen vs Karjakin || World Blitz Championship 2012
------
The 2012 FIDE World Blitz Championship was a 16-player double round robin held in Astana, Kazakhstan, 9-10 July. The field consisted of 10 (instead of nine, as the winner in 2010 Levon Aronian did not participate) top players from the FIDE rating list of January 2012, three players qualified from a 22-round Swiss open (for players rated 2300) tournament in Astana on 4 July (Andreikin, Le Quang Liem and Chadaev), two players selected by the organizer (Jumabayev and Kotsur), and one player picked by FIDE (Bologan). Time control: 3 minutes per player for all moves, with 2 seconds added per move from move 1. Prize fund: $200,000, with $40,000 to the winner. The event was held right after the first official FIDE World Rapid Championship, and the format was changed into a Swiss in 2013.
