‘Formerly World Class material now trains World Class Wannabees’
Good! Like GM Greece Halkias?
‘at one time a World Championship Candidate’
That was really long long ago. I think he played with Alekhine, also. Then were different time controls and different prize moneys. Nowadays with his old young age, he might be able to adapt and remain IM only.
Anon 11:51 you are really a moron. Do you know that?
Artur Jussupow who is now captain of Switzerland 2008 Olympiad team!
Martha Stewart!!!!!

Having the name on the picture and asking what is the name is the same as calling all visitors to this blog – stupid.
And that’s exactly what we are, especially the stupid ones who think they are smart by uncovering the plot. Freaks.
‘Artur Jussupow who is now captain of Switzerland 2008 Olympiad team!’
Engaging foreigners is like prostituting in chess. Switzerland has no schools of chess and only chocolates and no chess.
Yes, we are proud that Artur is a german chessplayer and coach. His live comments of grandmaster games are most enjoyable!
okay
