Olympiad is the top most event for Countries. Nothing even comes close.

Did Russia participate or they were excluded out?

Russia didn't participate but even a full strength Russian team would have been 4th or 5th favorite at best.

He's 100% right.

Yes, it was invented 1,000's of years ago but we lost our way and it took Vishy to awaken the sleeping beast.

chaturanga (orignal or primal name of chess) was invented near 6 century gupta period....so its near 1400+ years old game.
