oui mais dans ce tournoi il n’y avait personne pour l’empecher d’aller aux toillettes  😛  😛

Ouais, mais c’était pas des toilettes privées et en plus ...

"The blindfold game between Teimour Radjabov and Vasily Ivanchuk, the official bulletin tells us, saw a funny ‘incident’ when the Azerbaijani grandmaster asked the arbiter permission to go to the toilet. Normally speaking the players can go there alone if they go through a door at the back of the playing room and follow a route that doesn’t allow them to see any of the monitors where the games are shown. As this door turned out to be locked Radjabov had to go through the other door, but in this case he’d be able to see the monitors for the spectators in the playing room if he turned around. So, accompanied by chief arbiter Geurt Gijssen he left the room watching straight ahead and when he came back he had to cover his eyes with a napkin !"
