Blitz Games From the Tal Memorial, Day 3

In the previous post I threatened to present some games from the last day of the Tal Memorial Blitz (which was also the blitz world championship); today, I make good on my threat. (Whether it was stronger than the execution, I don't know.) There's a bit of everything: in the openings, there are gaffes, one-upsmanship and at least one big novelty. There are thrilling middlegames and strategic ones in which there's a battle of plans, and even a few endings. Have a look, here.
