they found multiple games where hans played 100 computer perfect moves
Pretty cool analysis. TLDR: Fischer, Carlsen, Kasparov at their best played with 69-72% correlation to chess engines. Niemann played at >70% correlation in many tournaments, and 79% correlation in two tournaments in a row. https://t.co/8P3GkEQaVS— Ludwig Yeetgenstein (@yeetgenstein) September 26, 2022

actually i also learned that kasparov is a cheat and behaved like a complete dick towards a teenage girl who nearly bested him once
this is less of a surprise tho
― mark s, Sunday, 2 October 2022 13:49 (one year ago) link
yeah its lame kasparov has such a good reputation when hes a huge idiot baby whos been trying to start a war between the us and russia for the last decade+ and believes jesus was born in crimea in 1152, on the other hand he is maybe the best chess player ever, but still

"maybe the best chess player ever" -- the first and biggest red flag imo

I was depressed yesterday so I put on some Tim Buckley and poked around the slides. A lot of the analysis is suspect but I think the conclusion is the same if the analysis was sound: Hans cheated frequently and cheated during tournaments.
― Allen (etaeoe), Thursday, 6 October 2022 17:53 (one year ago) link
yeah seems pretty clear hans is a cheating ass
― lag∞n, Thursday, 6 October 2022 18:03 (one year ago) link
wonder what fides gonna do, i dont think they have a policy for cheating thats not at the tourneys they run, and it could be harder for them to find evidence of cheating in their tourneys since they have so many fewer games to look at, they might just say fuck him anyway tho idk

It's quite late so I am probably being dumb but does black really need to resign there? Fairly sure he's going to lose a piece no matter what but bit early to throw in the proverbial towel

i've just started playing for the first time since I was a kid. way better at it now but still making dumb mistakes.

I've been enjoying Tata Steel a lot - first time I've followed a chess tournie for a while. Carlsen lost 2 games in a row but seems to be back on form now.
In other news this was an interesting game from John Bartholomew - also the opponent's comments made be lol https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8VQu33G-_ls

its so funny that he resigned the world chess championship and is playing poker instead, he made the final table of wpt tourney a while ago iirc, also hes really good at fantasy soccer, magnus carlson good at games
