| VaselineTopLove: GM Svidler is cool! I hope he is able to bounce back into the top. |

| Jim Bartle: "If you force me to play I am a decent player."
OK, it's not fair to take that statement out of context. But it is still curious. |

| slomarko: its not curious its plain stupid. what excuse will these drawing masters think of next? |

| Ken MacGillivray: The interviews of Peter Svidler on chessbase.com today are brilliant; not only has he a chess talent I would kill for; but his command of the English language beats me and English is my native language. He talked of upsides and downsides; well the only upside for me is I reckon I had more skill at cricket than Peter; well that's my opinion anyway. |

I admire your play very much, Mr Svidler. |

| WarrenHam: That win over Motylev was great! In no time the 3 pieces were directed towards the black king, like the "raptors" in Spielberg's movie. Isn't Motylev a friend and occasional helper of Svidler? |

| coolthing76: I like how humble <Svidler> is. Back in 2002 I was in Dubai to watch the FIDE Grandprix. It's not so often when the top players in the world come to the middle east. So I went there the 2nd day. I guess <Svidler> was already eliminated in the 1st round. I knew his name and saw some of his games but never saw a picture of him. So I was watching and the games and he came stood next to me and asked me about who won some of the games and I answered him. He wasn't wearing a suit like most other grandmasters, just a t-shirt, a jeans and pair of slippers!
Later I knew it was him. I wish I knew before I would asked him for a picture like I did with other players. Mind you, you can never tell this guy is Russian from his English accent. |

| KamikazeAttack: Peter is an anglophile, cricket mad and very articulate in English. He comes across as unassuming and very amiable. |

<"Bookup (Chess Openings Wizard) is simply the best way to study chess and it is incredibly useful in chess openings preparation. It's is one of the most user-friendly programs I've seen, written by the most user-friendly programmers I've ever met. It's great stuff!"-- Grandmaster Peter Svidler
Russian Champion 1994, 1995, 1997, 2003>
Did Svidler really say that? |
