In a Gruenfeld encounter, Gata Kamsky of the US drew his match against Shakriyar Mamedyarov in a wild, wild affair of sacrifices. Mamedyarov, playing white momentarily sacrifice a rook for mating threats on g7 . Kamsky, playing black, return the piece a couple of moves later to avoid imminent mate. Black enjoy material advantage for a while before White swipe three pawns in three succession moves to make the game almost dead even. Mamedyarov tried to pushed his isolated past pawn but black's constant harassment of White's king resulted in repetition moves.
