GM Peter Svidler's Unofficial Page
http://svidler.iespana.es/svidler/

Webmaster Pablo Sierra may be best known to Chessville's readers as the tireless Chessville News Editor.  Among his other passions though is an interest in Russian GM Peter Svidler, currently ranked #8 in the world as Pablo reports in the "Latest News" area on the home page.

Pablo has gathered together what he says is the biggest picture gallery on the Internet related to Peter Svidler (163 pictures), from which I lifted this nice little picture of the site's focus. This picture was taken at one of the German Bundesliga competitions.  The Gallery contains thumbnails of all 163 photos, spanning the years 1994-2003.

Another nice feature of this site is the Game of the Month, complete with JavaScript board to replay the game.  This month's game is Svidler,P (2710) - Chernyshov,K (2520) [B00] Match Voronezh, RUS (3), 2003, and it's a beauty, typical of Svidler's dynamic style of play.

A biography page lists highlights from his life and career, and a summary of his best results, including three Championships of Russia and the 2001 FIDE World Chess Championship 2001 semifinalist.

Finally a Recent Results page provides both historical results for the current and past years, but also lists upcoming events in which Svidler is expected to compete, including his upcoming Fischer-Random match with Peter Leko, scheduled for August 2003.

This is a well organized site which is easy to navigate and uncluttered in appearance.  My only complaint is the annoying pop-up advertisements.  However, this is a small and necessary inconvenience when surfing this sort of fan site, which almost always is hosted on a free-hosting site.  Visit GM Svidler's Unofficial Page and check out Pablo's work, and enjoy Svidler's chess life!
