Alexander Khalifman in Aix-les-Bains

What the press don’t write about

By mishanp on March 29, 2011

If you heard that Sergey Shipov’s sixth letter from Aix-les-Bains was about an ex-World Champion and bathroom visits… you’d come to completely the wrong conclusion! Shipov talks about the European Championship venue, and the down-to-earth reality of grandmaster life.

Gelfand at Crestbook Part II

By mishanp on June 20, 2010

The second installment of Boris Gelfand’s answers to the questions of Crestbook readers kept up the incredible length and quality of the first. A general title might be, “Everything you ever wanted to know about GM chess but never dared to ask”. He patiently answers questions ranging from “e4 or d4” to “what’s the meaning of life”!
