Meanwhile, Yuri Dokhoian enjoys a mineral water...

Haha. I always wanted to know....is he Armenian? Also, do you know if this was BEFORE or AFTER the world championship.

This was in January of 2000, so about 10 months before their match for the crown. At this point, Kramnik had not been named as the challenger... they may have still been trying to work something out with Shirov.

As for Dokhoian being Armenian, I'm not sure. All the sources I have just say "Russian".

[TheOgedai]

Yes! He is Armenian, now representing Russia.

@dustball3010 the fat dude is yuri dokhoian, a grandmaster...

I can assure you, folks, their speech is not quite interesting to translate, just a typical analysis of possibilities how the blacks (Kasparov) could act. That doesn't really differ from ordinary chessplayers.

But the comments are very amazing!!! :)
