Career

In 2004, during the 14th Abu Dhabi Chess Festival, Vladimirov played a match against the computer program Hydra, losing three games and drawing one.[1]

He acted as one of Garry Kasparov's seconds in his 1986 World Championship match against Anatoly Karpov,[2][3] when he was accused by Kasparov of giving information about the former's preparation to Karpov. In 2004 he was awarded the title of FIDE Senior Trainer.[4] In 2014, at the 1st Annual Asian Chess Excellence Awards in Al Ain, Vladimirov was voted the best coach of the year.[5]

gollark: Right, the Nokia N900 or whatever.
gollark: Seems reasonable. It is kind of annoying that there aren't any phones which have hardware keyboards *and* reasonably customizable software, though.
gollark: The internal M.2 slot functionality *is* pretty nice, though, I must say.
gollark: Having options is probably a good thing, but Librem seems more focused on a full FOSSy ecosystem for communication and whatnot rather than just hardware like PinePhone.
gollark: Is there a plan for a transparent back cover? It might be cool to be able to see the insides.
