Robert was losing, and Fabi blundered. Not hard to do, when you start off with 40% of the opponents time. What impresses me more, was that Fabi was making consistently good moves until he made a mistake.

Has Robert earned his first GM Norm yet? Also, how's his classical-time strength? So many good young players these days get so caught up in Blitz that they spend too little time really preparing for middle-game play in classical time control.

The time odds were pretty crazy though? They weren't 1 to 5 minutes, but, in all fairness, only a handful of GMs can give those kinds of time odds to an IM. But 2 to 5 minutes is still a huge disadvantage. Otherwise, Black's position would've just collapsed under time pressure.

What a game. One thing about Robert, this game showed his ability to take pressure and defend. Funny when I saw that he took back pawn with his f pawn instead of queen, I was surprised, but on deeper look it made sense. In the end, having that file open won him the game.
