        Chess is a dead game that at high levels has become about autismos memorizing sequences. For amateurs it is still fun though.

        Honestly, this will be an unpopular opinion (and I like too play chess too) but Texas Hold'em Poker is a better game than chess at this point.

            that's why I love Go, you can't really memorize all the variations. If you pick a certain game and ask the top Go players what the best move is, they will all give you different answers, if you do this with Chess, they'll likely give you roughly the same answer. Because of this, you are also activating parts of your brain that you don't during chess. You not only activate the logical analyzing parts of your brain, but also your creative and artistic parts trying to make the move that feels right in the current situation.

            It's too bad Go isn't that popular in the west. It really is the superior game

              Some situations there are only one good move, but often it's much murkier then that. Even chess engines will often disagree which move is superior. The main thing with memorization is opening preparation, where people will memorize ridiculous amounts of opening theory, but after you exhaust that you have to rely on your actual ability. It is really stupid which is why Fischer invented 960 to avoid all the annoying opening prep. Kinda gives the game an annoying barrier to entry for higher level play.

    what happened?

    • 2 years ago
      Anonymous

      Magnus played against Hans Niemann in a tourney a little while ago. Magnus was white and Hans was black. Magnus lost. Afterwards, Magnus withdrew from the tournament. The extremely strong implication of all of Magnus's actions was that he believed Hans cheated at the match, as following Magnus's withdrawal the tourney organisers suddenly put in a shitload more security measures to delay cheating, started using metal detectors, added a 15 minute delay to streamed games, etc. Magnus, however, did not formally accuse Hans of cheating. Nonetheless, rumours abounded and some other lads did some analysis showing that Hans repeatedly plays abnormally well when a game is being livestreamed as opposed to when there is a delay. Hans also was invited to give some commentary on the positions he played in the game and gave some of the most dogshit commentary imaginable, which seemed to heavily imply he had no fricking idea what was going on in the positions. It also surfaced that Hans previously cheated in private online games some years ago. Anyway, this seemed to be settled when the tourney organisers said that they hadn't received any evidence of cheating and that no official complaint was made.

      After all the occurred, Hans met Magnus again in an ongoing tourney. Magnus played one move and then immediately resigned, giving the game to Hans. The implication again is that Magnus still thinks that Hans is a cheater and doesn't want to play him.

      However, Magnus STILL has not made any statements on the matter and the entire chess world is basically telling him to shit or get off the pot, because at this point is just looks like Magnus wants to ruin the other guy's career, and he hasn't given any details as to why.

        Magnus also played an opening he has only played once in an obscure match, and Hans was somehow perfectly prepared for it and responded perfectly. This usually requires preparation/practicing typical openings of your opponents, but is unlikely this opening was prepared for. Magnus losing to Hans when Hans is black is also absurd. Also Hans is a known cheater, and its a huge psychological disadvantage to play against someone you know is a cheater, and then also suspect them of cheating when they suddenly respond perfectly to your obscure opening. It is said that Magnus started playing like one would against a computer to confirm his suspicions.

        Also Hans got banned from chess.com and Magnus definetely got info about it from chess.com since his company and chess.com is partnered up/merged, so he probably knows more than the public.

          Unclear as to how he is cheating at the moment, if at all. But there's definitely some fishy shit going on.

          Pic related shows Niemann's performance in tourneys between 2019 - 2020. He is apparently a significantly stronger player when games are broadcast live vs when there is a delay, and the gap is consistent and pronounced. Helluva coincidence if it is one.

      at GM level, you don't need to be fed every move to cheat and win, with experienced players, if you give them just one move at the right time, they can win with that.

      So it's substantially much easier to cheat as a GM because the cue can be very subtle and happen only once or twice per game.

        You'd only need few moves to be fed to you via anal vibrations to obliterate magnus. Hans is a good player and can capitalize with slight advantage.

    Lmao at the americans defending Hans Niemann. He’s a cheater and it doesn’t matter if he cheated against Magnus or not. Why would you even play against someone who has abused the rules of the game before? If anything, Magnus is the only one with balls who dare to take a stand against immorality.
    What’s so hard to understand?
    In short: Norwegians are based, americans not. Deal with it.

    Actual chess player (highest elo was 2000) here. In my opinion, there is no way in hell that kid played the way he did against magnus. It seemed so unnatural that even I as a novice notice it. Also, for the people itt wondering how hard it is to cheat in chess, you can go into your mobile phone AppStore right now and find a good dozen of engines that the world champion wouldn’t be able to beat even with pawn odds

        That’s the problem with chess, due to the layout of the board it’s very easy to cheat with even the smallest signs. You have 8 horizontal and 8 vertical fields, so all you have to communicate is a number between 1 and 8 twice. If you use binary code, it’s only half that even. You can have something vibrating on you body (which is why the buttoning theory is actually plausible), someone could blink or twitch his fingers to sign it to you, etc

      what if hans has autistically studied bad / off moves that engines don't particularly know or aren't the go to GM moves and then has studied ways to win based off of those bad / strange moves?

      essentially the way that high level chess and go players play against top level bots to beat them. He's essentially playing to beat what the top players probably regularly study, which are moves that engines tend to make. There's also a psychological component to this, since he's cheated in the past. So he makes a strange move which the opponent sees as strange and because it's strange thinks its a cheat move and then is thrown off.

                If we didn't have him going up against magnus and winning and then subsequent weird analysis of his game against magnus, there would be much less evidence of him cheating OTB.

                Why do you think Magnus values a single game that is lost against a cheater? Don't you think it's more valuable to chess as a whole, in Magnus' eyes, to build evidence against a cheater and get them banned from in person tournaments as well?

                now you combine the knowledge with the fact that engines designed specifically to catch cheaters have said that he plays normally, which means they had to manually go through all his games and see if he was cheating, this isn't something you can do within the span of a day.

                The simple answer is that they did not have enough evidence to accuse him of cheating. Like I said, you don't seem to understand how cheaters are caught in games like this. They're likely not going to find a device, instead they have a consistent pattern of odd behavior. They seem to have had evidence of this behavior online, but not OTB, now they do.

                You're also conveniently leaving out the fact that Magnus played like shit against Hans. I doubt a turbo autist such as Magnus would do that without some ulterior motive or, from a psychological aspect, have some idea that Hans may be a cheater and thus was thrown off.

                Yes, especially in a tournament, and especially because of how strong he is as a chess player. Unless you have some proof of him fricking up other recent tournaments.

                I don't understand why you keep misrepresenting this. A single odd game does not prove someone is cheating at chess. Like you said, they seemed to be amicable a month earlier. If this is just a one off thing, why did magnus imply he was cheating then? It is your logic that is starting to fall apart, not mine.

                It is less logical that this one off tournament Magnus instantly thinks Hans is cheating, implies that he cheats, then Hans gives an interview saying he only cheated twice and then chess.com banning him for lying about how he cheated in the past. Are you really that smoothbrained to not understand how weird these events are taken at face value.

                It is only logical to assume Magnus had an suspicion of Hans cheating or had some proof of him cheating previously and those suspicions were confirmed in their single game they played with each other, it is entirely illogical to think Magnus would accuse someone of cheating after only one game and thinking that Magnus did not have any preconceived notions of that person cheating.

                That is a silly claim. You just keep winning and you'll make it to the top. If there are still suspicions of cheating and/or devices just keep escalating protocols - for example must play over the board is the obvious one, playing without toilet breaks, jamming rf frequencies, military-standard strip search for foreign devices, metal scanning for device implants, question about why they made a particular move - there is no way what you're saying could happen dude. Perhaps you're thinking it's like ped use in athletes where they can never be sure, but for communicating moves, no it's not. At least not with anything like today's tech, especially considering we're talking peanuts not hundreds of mllions of dollars.

        There’s a lot of reasons why this is unlikely. Even an engine has troubles coming back against a top player after a series of moves bad enough. If you actually look at the game, the opening is a very common chess opening, and the strange moves don’t really start until (I’d say) move 30. Even the most autistic preparation can’t account for that many possible moves in such a common opening. Especially not coming from a 2500 elo player, especially one that just so happens to overperform in every single game that is live broadcasted

        Please stick to chess and don't talk about computers because you know jack shit about how they work on any level, this actually undermines your point

    Go has been beaten by computers that can make art while Chess was beaten by a glorified COMMODORE64. Also Go players peak at 20 like mathematicians while chess players peak at 30 like crack prostitutes.

    Chess players were always little b***hes throwing hissy fits. During a world championship match in the 70s one player's team accused the other of witchcraft.
    Another player joked that "he's never won against a healthy opponent" kek.

    There's something in chess that attracts autists with fragile egos. Some guys are O.K. though like Karpov or that Bulgarian Sleazechad

    >>Just memorize hundreds of variations in over 20 lines. What are novelties?!?
    I don't think they're saying it's not incredibly difficult to do, just that as society has advanced to the point of having such excess that very smart people have time to memorize the game like this, which used to not be the case. It's only "solved" by the best of the best though, the spirit of the game still lives with people who are playing without knowing every possible move

      Only the first maybe 10-15 moves are theory at the top level. Then the novelties come in and it's all up to the players from there.
      Do you think the literal trillions of positions that could come up can be memorised by anyone?
      Don't talk out your ass.

        10-15 moves still ruins the game. And stop pretending there isn't a certain degree of narrowing-down that can occur based on an opponent's prior playe etc. There might be billions of possible combinations of moves but there is much smaller range of moves that actually make sense or wouldn't be outright losers in any given scenario.

        It really speaks to how fricked the game is that you call normal-play a "novelty" kek. I mean apparently in your mind it is a literal novelty if people aren't memorizing moves. Insane how the irony of this language is missed on you.

    Modern chess enjoys a reputation as a "thinking man's game" but the reality it is just a game for autismos, and is much less about actual human strategy than other superior games.

        Hotter than playing fricking chess. That's the thing is that these pros are all obsessed. Play chess all day for a living and when it's time for anything else? Nah, more chess. Sex? No, Iet's play chess. Go to the beach? Bring a chessboard. Getting drunk with the boys? Let's stream some games of chess.
