![]() ![]() Yes, occasionally human players do find astonishing moves. in an unpromising branch, but the computer “sees further ahead” and may find something surprising. What invariably happens is that a human will never go down to move 7, 8, 9, etc. A computer, however, examines everything. Humans cope by only looking down branches that look promising. Think of chess as a tree of moves: white plays, then black has many choices, and then white has many choices, and pretty soon you are into a combinatorial explosion. The chief problem for the cheater is that humans calculate moves very differently than a computer. Or what if you only cheat in some games, or throw the analysis off by playing some bad moves and then “catching up”?Įven in those cases, you’re likely to be caught. But what if you’re subtle – maybe you’re a good player and only use the computer in tough positions? The report quotes a GM who says that a GM would only need to consult a computer two or three times during the game. If you played a game of and used only the moves recommended by a chess engine, you would be immediately detected because your moves match the computer’s output and they have computers as well. The investigatory method they use is interesting. Keep in mind that with modern hardware, even a five-year-old smart phone can defeat Magnus Carlsen, so the question in cheating is never “is it possible” but rather “was it done”. Long story short, it accuses Niemann of cheating in over 100 games, including tournaments with cash prizes. It’s amazing how many charts are in this thing. Today, released a 72-page-report that is dense with charts, stats, and more charts. The staff there eventually reinstated them, and were upfront in saying that they tend to give 12-year-olds the benefit of the doubt when they make a mistake.īut all this cheating was in the past, Niemann said. Niemann denies any cheating but does admit that he cheated online when he was 12 and 16, and was subsequently caught and suspended by. Dlugy also has been embroiled in several online cheating scandals and admitted cheating himself multiple times online over the years. Dlugy is a GM, former title challenger, and of Niemann’s coaches. Parsed carefully, Carlsen is praising Niemann’s “play” (not Niemann) and refers to Maxim Dlugy. I felt a burning in my brain after that because it is so acid. I have to say I’m very impressed by Niemann’s play and I think his mentor Maxim Dlugy must be doing a great job. Unfortunately, I cannot particularly speak on that, but people can draw their own conclusions, and they certainly have. ![]()
