http://www.chessbase.com/news/2009/...
<Sergey Shipov (born 17 April 1966) is a Russian grandmaster, whose peak FIDE rating of 2662 put him at no. 23 in the world on the January 1999 rating list. He is a well-known and highly regarded trainer, and is well-known in his native Moscow as an outstanding blitz player. Indeed, for a number of years, he was a regular practice partner of Garry Kasparov, who described him as one of the best blitz players in the city. He is the author of two books, one on the Kasparov-Kramnik match of 2000 (co-authored with the legendary Russian chess commentator Yakov Damsky), and one on the Hedghog System. An English edition of the latter is due to be published later this year. In recent years, he has established a strong reputation amongst Russian-speaking audiences as an online live commentator over the internet, for the Russian site http://www.crestbook.com/ > |

| Sep-05-09 | | percyblakeney: Some quotes from an interview with Shipov:
<the best chess players in the world are the best in blitz too> <if Karpov plays like he did in San-Sebastian 2009, he’s going to be mercilessly crushed> <Before the Anand-Kramnik encounter I predicted that it is going to end with an impressive victory of one of the players, and I was right. But I didn’t exactly choose Anand. Now it makes sense to question the experts if the match will take place at all. For example, I am not sure that it will happen> <Best chess player of all time? Kasparov, by far> http://www.pogonina.com/index.php?o... |

| Apr-28-10 | | Caissanist: Sergey Shipov (born 17 April 1966) is a Russian grandmaster, whose peak FIDE rating of 2662 put him at no. 23 in the world on the January 1999 rating list. He worked for Garry Kasparov for many years as a trainer, online commentator on kasparovchess.com, and frequent blitz partner; Kasparov was quoted as saying that Shipov was one of the best blitz players in Moscow. In recent years Shipov has devoted himself more to online commentary, often for his own Russian-language website www.crestbook.com. |

| Dec-15-10 | | SufferingBruin: People here get annoyed when one member tries to speak for all. But if Sergey reads these boards at all, he'll know that I'm not the only one that appreciates his commentary on the London Chess Classic. I'm virtually alone in my argument that Chess would make good television. Sergey's analysis was worthy of a great sports commentator--accessible, educational, entertaining. Bravo, Sergey. |

| Apr-17-11 | | talisman: happy birthday and thanks for all you do to make the games more enjoyable with your analysis. |

| Jul-04-11 | | bronkenstein: Shipov`s extensive videos on Linares , WAZ 2010 + 2011 , WC Candidates 2011 etc summed on one spot http://crestbook.com/CrestEyes/. All the humour and insight from these vids really make me feel pity for non Russian speakers =( Hopefully he will do something about that soon ... though only like 30% of the content is translateble ... the chess part =) |

checkmating later on…"

| May-08-15 | | TheFocus: <The machine does not teach playing flexibility, does not help in taking account of human factors in the battle, and on whole, strictly speaking, it restricts the possibilities for young players> (2013) - Sergey Shipov, on computers. |
|
| May-17-15 | | TheFocus: <I address these hopes to all young players. It seems to me that they often begin too early the strict life of a professional, without first completing their chess studies. Deficiencies in education and a lack of certain basic knowledge will tell sooner or later; they will bump their head on the ceiling and will no longer be able to climb up the stairs> - Sergei Shipov. |

| | FSR: At the time of the Kasparov - Kramnik Classical World Championship Match (2000), Kasparov had a webste, kasparovchess.com, which Shipov ran. Shipov claimed before the match that Kasparov was an overwhelming favorite, since he was rated IIRC 80 points higher than Kramnik. Even after Kramnik won Game 2, Shipov continued to assert that Kasparov was a prohibitive favorite. I pointed out to Shipov that 22 of Kasparov and Kramnik's last 23 classical games before the match had been draws, and Kramnik had won the other. They had also played a 24-game blitz match, which ended in a tie. Kosmos Hotel (5-minute/player) blitz (1998). So, I argued, the players were actually very evenly matched, and had drawn a large majority of their standard games against one another. I said that as such Kramnik, having won a game in the match, was now a big favorite. Kasparov's 80-point rating advantage did not stem from his games against Kramnik, but only those against other players. I observed that maybe Kasparov would get a win somewhere, in which case he might be able to tie the match and thereby retain his title. But it was at least equally likely that Kramnik would win a second game, whereupon Kasparov would be toast. Shipov agreed that I had a point. As we now know, the latter scenario is exactly what happened. |

| | FSR: <MissScarlett> I was using Shipov's statistic, I think. Could be wrong. These are their games up to 2000, but a lot are rapid and blitz: https://www.chessgames.com/perl/che... |
