Sergey Shipov commentating live on Tata Steel Chess 2011
By mishanp on January 15, 2011
Sergey Shipov needs little introduction. Although he’s taken on many roles in his time – elite grandmaster, Garry Kasparov’s blitz sparring partner, author (The Complete Hedgehog) and trainer (Nepomniachtchi is one student he’s worked with) – he’s best known for his internet journalism, and especially his live commentary. His combination of chess knowledge, speed of thought (and computer skills) and a wonderful turn of phrase, makes for a final product that’s usually worth reading long after you know which passed pawn prevailed.
I’ll be translating Sergey’s commentary each day live, from about 13:30 CET, here: http://www.chessintranslation.com/live-game/
Below I’ve gathered together links to all of Shipov’s live commentary since I started this site:
