Corus 2008 | reaction Danailov after no-handshake incident

[@madrashot]

"Man up and earn the point, don't bit*h and whine" - he did. The game was replayed, and Short won.

[@piollopiollo]

Sadly in these last times, when there is a scandal in chess Danailov is behind it... Nobody created more scandals than this man

[@UndisputedONE2]

if you only ever knew right now

[@bearsagainstevil]

Clearly true, refusing to shake hands is a act of rudeness and may be made to try to get some form of psychological advantage by annoying the person being snubbed. short was correct

[@balokrop]

During the closing-ceremony of the 70th Corus Chess Tournament the following statement was made by the organizing committee. - On Sunday January 20th, 2008 we were confronted with an unpleasant situation when a participant refused to shake hands with his opponent. Such actions are a rude offense to the opponent, to the organizing committee as well as to the sponsor.

[@nataschmidtt]

"he (Short) created the problem, not Cheparinov" he's sick i think

[@johnnybrew1]

Danailov tried to brazen this out and defend the indefensible. Cheparinov created the problem and he got his rightful comeuppance. It was sheer bad manners, apart from being against the rules.

[@chri2453]

He should be managing a wrestler, not a chess player.

[@Blacksmith1959]

Short deserves utter contempt for is comments

[@irresistablejewel]

I think the rule should say that you must shake your opponants hand, or neck, before the game.

[@kapullas]

Chess players are like kids.

[@RuudJH]

Short didn't create the problem. The arbiter made a mistake, that's all The real problem was Short stated his doubts about the honesty of Topalov in a previous tournament, and the Bulgarians (Cheparinov and Topalov are buddies) didn't like that. But Short only did this after Topalov accused Kramnik of cheating during their WC match (Toiletgate). It's a classical case of 'the pot calling the kettle black'.

[@bogdan192]

chess is the game of kings! the good maners are very important! i am a turnament player and i don't agree with the gesture!

[@tipau]

Everyone in the chess world knows who Nigel Short is, he's been a world championship finalist and has played in all the major tournaments many times over the years. He hardly needs PR. Cheparinov is still on the rise, has never played an elite event and so far less people have heard of him. He needs PR far more than Short

[@nicolasskettos]

Why should I play with someone that refused intentionally to shake hands with me? Goodnight...

[@gdounito]

he refused to shake because short called cheparinov danailonv and the whole topalov gm team "apes" in his one of his interviews. no one refuses to shake hands out of no where. short was the one who acted badly in the first place. so you cant expect the other guy to be a gentleman when you practically insulted him numerous times and publicly.

[@ScaramouchedaVinci]

And I thought chess player are intelligent.

[@Konformation07]

He didn't shake your hand whoop dee freakin do. What a baby.

[@phoenixshade3]

Your bias is showing. Short was correct; the arbiter made a mistake by not requesting the handshake before the forfeit. After an appeal, the game was played and the result confirmed Short's win. Justice served. F Danailov.

[@lisyaron]

For the sake of one point, Danailov jeopardises his party's PR. 'Recommendation' only or not, to not shake hands is clearly poor sportsmanship and shows an absolute lack of manners and professionalism.

[@PierreKorfiatis]

Did he said "sports pants" on 4:37 LOL

[@erkascazuchi8443]

today people refuse to shake my hand. they even wear masks and avoid being close to me...as if i was an alien. how rude!!

[@phale83]

the FineBros will be coming for this video

[@tipau]

I don't think you can blame the split entirely on Short. Although he was partly to blame so was Kasparov and especially FIDE itself.

[@Tkjawa]

Turns out, it was a rule and he ended up getting smoked when they replayed the game.

[@XecutionStyle]

You fools.. that speak of "childish" due to not shaking hands. This is beyond that, try to think along or don't comment.

[@shorbock]

@MultiLhc there are not many but there are some... for example remember kamsky's father

[@fluorophore]

classy stuff, dude.. really.

[@NotSoLiberal]

@glennmidelossantos Where did you get that Fischer hated Tal? I don't think it's true.

[@Sugarrushhh90]

He visited him at hospital and they played and laughed- visible on picture, so thats bullshit.

[@19cohen]

What da fuck was that?Kasparov and Topalov they are both men and sportsmen?SPORTSMEN?u gotta shake the fuckn hand to be considered sportsman.every game ends with handshaking.its a respect towards the GAME itself first of all.even no rule fights have handshaking and whoever does not shake hands is not a sportsman.

[@nekbeth]

would you shake hands with a person that said shit about you in public?? I think Cheparinov made a good decision

[@rebharath]

wow - talk about playing the man and not the board.

[@Patralgan]

Hi guys what's up? :) I hope you're having a civilized conversation. Oh, I guess not.

[@Patralgan]

Dafuq? I'm pretty sure I have never seen this video but apparently I have

[@ulaq]

@@Patralgan Fresh out of time-travel machine! It's good to have you back :)

[@Patralgan]

@@ulaq It's been a wild ride

[@KOKOPIKOSS]

chess mafia...thats all...

[@zweer13]

Well, at least he is funny. Short, take a note. :))

[@iluvatarchem]

SUch class .. Seriosly now that's disgusting. Chess players and coaches are behaving like uneducated idiots

[@Konformation07]

It's a handshake. If you are so mad about it then sit down and pummel him at the board.

[@eddarby469]

... and he did.

[@PhilomathBret]

lol Hi Topalov.

[@Drwhofan1971]

chess does not need danailov. he is not liked, he is unwelcome, he cannot play chess! Topalov should ditch him. Topa is a titan of chess; he doesn't need this joker in his camp.

[@schackproffset]

Thats why the incident

[@19cohen]

i meant Kramnik and Topalov sorry:)

[@kimyunmi452]

the face of a cheater

[@bckm54]

Danailov is full of it and has been for years. Besides, how much trouble is it to shake hands? It's stupid and immature to refuse to do so.

[@cubefreak93]

i support short

[@anandramesh7024]

[@neweins8864]

[@deutscheblitzkrieg]

Danailov is a crook.

[@uck0307]

[@DianaVita0]

[@Murphourinho]

Danailov = peasant Cheparinov = peasant Topalov = peasant

[@borisgorski7574]

+Murphourinho Murphourinho = a true aristocrat... Dude, you are an idiot...
