The two "G's", Grischuk and Gelfand successfully eliminated the two "K's", Kramnik and Kamsky in the semifinal. Grischuk outclassed Kramnik in the blitz game. Kamsky beat Gelfand in the 3rd round(rapid), but Gelfand bounced back and clinched the 4th game, and then won the blitz game. An outstanding performance shown by Grischuk as he overwhelm the top favorites, Aronian in the Q-final and Kramnik in the semis. Where else, Gelfand preparation finally paid off as he triumphed against Mamedyarov in the Q-final and Kamsky in the semis. The game will resume on the 19th of May 2011.
