The Handshake Rule.

Posted by: Khaled | April 17, 2009

It’s been a while since it happened. However, we all remember when Cheparinov Refused to Shake the hands of Nigel Short, twice!

If you are offered a handshake and you refuse, than you forfeit the point automatically.

Cheparinov lost the round because of this. Don’t make the same mistake.

Watch the one minute video of the incident.

And the other video is an interview with GM Nigel Short discussing the issue with Cheparinoc and the new handshake rule.
