Carlsen won the event with 4.5 out of 6 after having a highly unpleasant (to say the least :)) position against Aronian in the last round!
Final standings:
1. Carlsen 4.5
2. Nakamura 3.5
3. Aronian 2.5
4. Kamsky 1.5

It looked like both players were well prepared but after 15th move of Black Ushenina just didn’t manage to find good moves and lost very quickly. I must admit that it is the first time that I see the World Champion suffering with the White pieces in a match for the crown.
Two draws were played yesterday: Nakamura-Carlsen and Aronian-Kamsky.
Standings after 5 rounds (of 6)
1. Carlsen 3.5
2. Nakamura 3
3. Aronian 2.5
4. Kamsky 1
Pairings of the last round
Carlsen – Aronian
