  MikhailGolubev: TV interview with GM Legky (in Russian): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wshV...
Nov-01-16  SueursFroides: He is weird to play... He never look at you and "never" look at the board (only when he make a move), he almost always look at the ceiling... Like in a blindfold game, it's frustrating!!
