The leader of the tournament, Levon Aronian quickly shook the hand with Teymour Radjabov (in 12 moves) and secured his victory in this tournament.
Magnus Carlsen defended himself with the Dutch Defence against Loek Van Wely, but he was not able to manage more than half a point and it did not get a single chance to be a threat to Aronian this time.
Kamsky beat Topalov and Caruana beat Boris Gelfand which put the Italian behind the winner and eventually he shares 2. - 4. place together with Carlsen and Radjabov.
And here is the game Fabiano Caruana vers Boris Gelfand:
The final cross-table looks like that:
