Plus Vasiliev is getting daily updates from the Russian captain, Bareev, who's so far managed to e.g. say trainers need sedatives to watch women play endgames, offend the whole of the Peruvian nation and, perhaps my favourite, unfavourably compare Vladimir Malakhov's (rating about 2720) opening knowledge to that of a cleaning lady in the playing complex :)<br /><br />This was my latest summary: http://www.chessintranslation.com/2010/09/russia-usa-in-the-russian-press/ (there are links to the earlier Olympiad posts at the end). It's probably more what you're looking for, though I'll need to add some better photos :)mishanphttp://www.chessintranslation.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14539885.post-86594042455212946812010-09-27T01:39:37.646+09:002010-09-27T01:39:37.646+09:00It takes about 3-4 hours to write the reports and ...It takes about 3-4 hours to write the reports and what we get is "ChessVibes barely makes an effort". Well, thanks, but this is what you get when an Olympiad takes place in a just too damn far away place. Many journos simply won't go there, and then all you can do is focus on the chess itself.

I try to post basic updates for Chess.com, but it's hard to know where to start with so many games going on.<br /><br />I don't think any chess website currently has the resources to cover the event properly, let alone pursue human interest stories.<br /><br />Not sure what you mean by women players "showing off more of their tits"! Has someone been naughty again at the Bermuda party?! ;-)Ryanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13517158230340317999noreply@blogger.com
