Examples

“Alexander Grishchuk provided the much-needed fireworks on the board, as six out of nine of his games were decisive. The Russian is well known for giving his fans a heart attack by blitzing out moves in the final seconds of time control and if he hadn't been a chess player, my best guess is that he would have been in a bomb squad saving lives. It remains to be seen if Grischuk can change his timing style and do justice to his actual playing style.”
“The players blitzed out their opening moves until Carlsen played the rare 8 .... h6, a line only seen twice previously at the highest level.”
“Typically in chess, the first eight to ten moves follow an established theory or line of play and top grandmasters blitz out these moves. After that, towards mid-game, it gets complicated, with far too many variables, permutations and combination. That is where human creativity, intuition, and genius comes in.”
