excellent website! I like the 8 boards viewer. Never seen that one before.
I would like to suggest a group photo of all the chess players. I think that would be really cool to put on facebook (with the names of course) and your website.
wish i could be there to view the games, etc, but so far away...maybe for the Olympia...
Just one small suggestion in the video press conference/interview with players after games they need to have microphone closer as sometimes very hard to hear them
No complaints at all — the coverage is fantastic, the video, the commentary in English, the video on demand and the game viewer — THANK like a Grandmaster...
Muy buena la cobertura. En esta Copa del Mundo donde hay tantos jugadores de tan diversos paises, bueno seria que cuando la filmacion se detiene en una partida un buen rato aparezcan los nombres de los contendores sobreimpreso o tal vez haciendo un paneo sobre los carteles con sus nombres, por lo demas excelente.
Congratulations for your excellent World Chess Cup internet coverage. It's a high level of quality and, so far, it's the best I have seen. When watching the live video, Portugal seems so close to Khanty-Mansiysk.
nice coverage... congratulations to ms judiet polgar,(round 3,game 1) excellent pusher until the last drop of her BLOOD. salute to the only lady in the CUP.
Its nice that all tournaments in the future can have this kind of coverage. I enjoyed every time I opened my computer. Great job!!
Who are the commentators (male and female voice) during live games, they are wonderful analysts! I think they are strong grand masters also... please give their names. Thank you...
Just one little suggestion: It would be far better to elevate the cam in board close ups a little bit (like 50 cm). That's because it's way to horizontal at the moment so you can see the texture of Rh1 or Rh8 very well, but not so much what's going on at the whole board...
I want to emphatically thank Khanty-Mansiysk authorities for giving us, chessplayers in the world, the wonderful possibility of watching the very top world chess grandmasters in action. The footage is excellent! The commentaries (Konstantin and the knowledgeable lady) in English are very juicy and highly informative.
This is the best live coverage of any chess event that I have ever seen. The combination of HD video, and commentary is excellent. I would pay for a collection of all the videos of this event. The chess fans from around the world should thank the organizers.
BRAVO...ms polgar!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(Round 4,b)great moves until the last dropped of her blood and still flowing with out any flaws.GREAT ONE to remember in the anals of chess.PRAY for you...
This site is simply fantastic!!! I was hoping for a long time to see live GM chess with commentary in english. I am from the United States and I subscribe to chess sites with live GM commentary, but this is the first time I can view the action live at the site. I just have one comment. the commentators Constantine and I believe the other person's name is Hanna. There great...but I wish Hanna would give Constantine a chance to finish is comments when explaining what's on the board. I think Hanna has a tendency to talk over his comments sometimes.
But they are both great. Again do more of this thank you very much!!
This has been a wonderful experience, and I'd like to thank the organisers for bringing this incredible event into the home of an Australian (as well as many others around the world)!
Great video, some freezes during tie-breaks but it's ok. Commentators are good, thanks for their commentary (wanna be perfect ? stop saying «actually» in each sentence ! ).
Hope you'll set new standards for video, even if there still some works to do.
Fantastisch gemacht! Endlich eine Übertragung, die so profesionell wie das Event ist — ein doppelplussupertolles Vorbild für andere Schachübertragungen in der Zukunft — auch die Art und Weise der Live-Kommentierung (tolles Team).
thanks it s really wonderfull its the best way to learn chess and understand the moves with the commentator but you have to wait sometimes very long for analysis
hello to russia ! its an excellent site you offer to the chess fans worldwide. thank u very much!
my favourite is anna, the english commentator in the live games. she`s so funny and lady like with her beautiful voice! do like her very much. go on like this ugra!!
I have really enjoyed the video on demand coverage, Anna and Konstantin's commentary has been excellent, they have really added colour to the games with their stories and information about the players, many thanks.
Excellent coverage and excellent website. English commentating is very entertaining too. I feel like Konstantin and Anna are my friends after listening to them throughout the tournament. Konstantin's analytical skills and Anna's enthusiasm compliment each other so well.
This has to be the best chess coverage ever. Not only have we been given phenomenal live HD video feeds but also superb entertaining commentary. Konstantin and Anna have really added to my enjoyment of this event. I shall miss them both when the tournament finishes.
Congratulations to everybody involved — you have set a new standard in chess reporting !
Anna and Konstantin do a great! job with analyzing all the games. I have RT on my cable in America but there is no news about chess. I find that very unusual. My favarite player when he was in his prime was Anatoly Karpov. Bobby Fisher was great but 250 tournament wins by Karpov will never be broken.
I hope the organizers continue broadcasting live video events like this in the future.
Замечательные комментарии, Серёжа и Валера, на прекрасном русском языке. Мне особенно нравится, что вы объясняете всё с чисто человеческой точки зрения, это приятно в наши компьютерные времена. Огромное спасибо!
The live showing of a chess tournament can only be apprecieated by a true lover of the game. Anna and Konstantin are the best!! I love their detailed anaylises. I am from America, and my favorite player of all time is Anatoly Karpov. His 250 tournament wins will never be broken. I hope the organizers will do more live on-site GM games like this.
Never has chess been so well broadcasted and so fun to watch on the internet, really thank you for having made such an effort for the internet chess fans. I just wish that that kind of things could be more frequent in the future and especially that the next World Championship could be broadcasted this way.
I especially enjoyed the end of the last game with the analyses of Peter and Alexander and the song at the end, it was very emotional.
Thank you not only for your superb coverage of the tournament and the interviews and the analysis but also for the information on Khanty-Mansiysk itself. I loved the article on the Mammoth Gardens (and what a pleasure it would be to see that).

Great facilities for all of us. Thanks.
Perfect internet coverage!!
Its nice that all tournaments in the future can have this kind of coverage. I enjoyed every time I opened my computer. Great job!!

Live expert anaylsis with LIVE up close video from the site. What more can a chess lover ask for.
Great job!
