Message: I have never played 3 player chess. Years ago I played 4 player chess, which was played as a team game. 4 player chess makes more since to me, Since in 3 player chess, two of the players may gang up on the third; so defense might be much more important than attacking.

The No1 seeds have not won the biennial Chess Olympiad since 2002, so the team's grandmasters had to attend a pre-Olympiad training camp with "bruising" fitness sessions, while the legendary Yuri Dokhoian, who helped Garry Kasparov, was hired as coach. After eight of the 11 rounds Russia led with 15/16, two points clear, after the ex-world champion Vlad Kramnik scored a key win over Armenia's world No2, Levon Aronian. Kramnik opened as White with the Exchange Slav, seemingly too quiet for a must-win game but an old favourite of the Soviet chess patriarch Mikhail Botvinnik, who ...
