You’d think if you’re gonna be too prideful to shake hands you’d at least not look like a middle schooler trying to avoid eye contact with their crush.
Pro move in this situation would be to stare at your opponent the whole match instead. You've already got him looking anywhere but at you, take the opportunity to make him as uncomfortable as possible. Who knows, it might put him off his game a bit.
Well, there was a long interview with Kramnik not long ago where he explained his view on that tournament. While toilet issue may sound funny it actually was a serious problem. Basically Kramnik suspected that after forcing him to go to public tiolet instead of the one restricted to players only next step would be some convenient guy suggesting him a move on the way there with scandal and possibly disqualification following. So he refused to play on such terms as his whole career and reputation could be destroyed if he was right
Kramnik: *goes in the toilet and takes out the paper in his pocket* The paper: "A pawn may capture en passant a horizontally adjacent enemy pawn that has just advanced two squares in one move. It's always forced." Kramnik: FFFUU***KKK ! I blundered En Passant !!!

Love it! So much drama. I just found your channel because of the BBC clip about chess streamers and the impact of the Queen's Gambit. I used to play a little bit of chess as a child, and we had a chess club at my elementary school, but it was all very basic. We didn't learn a lot of advanced chess and I never even came close to doing a ranked match. Then I saw QG and it has definitely renewed my enthousiasm.
On Kramnik's keychain was a tiny flashlight, of the kind you use to see the keyhole in the dark. Unknown to the chess organisers, Kramnik's manager was writing secret messages in invisibility pen on the white tiles, and Kramnik would use his ultraviolet flashlight to read them, then wipe them off and resume the match.
I just have to appreciate what an entertaining personality Levy is. He's like the coolest teacher of the school in your childhood memories or the greatest storyteller in the family. Awesome, I really do appreciate this channel and his content. High five and thanks a million Gotham!
Nowadays we call him Sramnik (sram=shame in bulgarian). There are also some language variations that connect the words shame and toilet so it fits perfectly.
Did Kramnik ever explain why he going in and out of the bathroom so much? I if the timing stated in that letter @9:40 is accurate, it does seem rather odd behavior from Kramnik.
I suspect that topalov spiked kramnik's breakfast with laxatives, causing him to slowly shit himself for the entire match, as a ploy to back up cheating allegations.
We cannot know what happened for sure, but you have to admit that Kramnik going up to 50 times to the bathroom each game is not normal... Every game!!!
I mean when you see the lengths the KGB went for doping athletes by drilling through walls in bathrooms to change samples around it's hard not to think they had a way to get him a computer of some sort.
It's not normal. He was using the bathroom as a tactic to annoy tupolov. Kasparov would go to his waiting room after every move during his match with Anand
Im bad in english so i didnt understand so well what you said in the storytime but I like the chess games that you show us everyday, youre a great person

Welcome to Santander, Spain when you want to take a rest. My wife and I will be glad to meet and receive you at our home.
In my opinion Anand, Kramnik and Topalov were the strongest players post the Kasparov-Karpov era and Anand probably the strongest as he beat Kramnik to be WC and then successfully defended his title against Topalov
