not only, playing OTB is VERY different from online chess, furthermore TT is 3+1. which Kramnik did not accept, playing with 3+2, and the face to face OTB was 5+2, and in spite of that Jospem won the first match. You can only understand the prior considerations if you played both online chess and OTB with a rating roughly equal or aboveabove 2000

I feel Kramnik has crossed many ethical lines, with increasing seriousness, over the last year. It is reassuring in a small way to hear Danny’s overall opinion on this is so similar to my own. With Kramnik’s latest words toward Naroditsky, I believe an ethics complaint should be filed against him with FIDE.

Kramnik is being very irresponsible. If it is a fide tournament then Kramnik should complain to them or whichever appropriate authority there is ,but doing detective work with eyeball movements and the like is just irresponsible. All of these allegations are followed by an invitation to play him - Why ? .He should start playing fide rated tournaments and then complain about cheating." to FIDE. I classify this as indirect bullying-If you beat me I will call you a cheater . If you don't play me -I will force you to play me otherwise you are a cheater. Alternatively he could devise an alternative rating system of his own named something like K-ELO 🤷

Danny (and almost every American) should learn how to talk with non Americans. He uses many idioms or figurative speech or plain slang. I'm pretty sure a lot of what he said got lost to ESL viewers and the host himself because of that. For example he kept on saying "getting eyeballs" and similar expressions with friggin' eyeballs. Can't you say people who watch something or read something? I think that the ability to communicate within an international context is crucial in his position and for the goals he wants to achieve.

Detecting online chess cheating is nearly impossible, in fact. A player can choose the third or fourth suggestion from the computer instead of the first one and still win the game because computers have become much better than humans. Unfortunately, I don't see a solution at this moment.
@GaaikeEuwema5 күн бұрын
That should be possible to detect, with the right algorithm. what is difficult to detect is a really good player just cheating a single move in a game..
@worldcesar5 күн бұрын
@@GaaikeEuwemaI don’t believe so. If you choose a software that isn’t as strong as Stockfish to assist you, even a version from 25 years ago, and avoid selecting the top suggestions, you will most likely win the game, and detection systems will report that the accuracy was far below what could be considered computer assistance. Computers from 1997 already started beating world champions, and today's software no longer considers those moves from 1997 as the best ones. In other words, detecting a skilled cheater through algorithms is impossible.

47:30 Statistics are never wrong because statistics don't claim anything. PEOPLE make claims based on statistical observations, but it has to go through some kind of reasoning, and this is the part where things can be "wrong". We aren't suggesting that Kramnik is providing wrong statistics, but rather that the way he uses these statistics to support his claims is deceptive because his reasoning is always biased and flawed.

The chess Kom needs more competition on its own. Then they will work better to fight the cheaters. They can not admit that the cheating is so scandalous on their website. It is bad business for them to admit that. Example: a few minutes ago a played a game with 1200 on their website. He won convincing. Attacking me left and right, sacrificing pieces etc. I am 2150. Then I play a guy who is 1400 and he is giving away free pieces left and right, which is normal for their level of playing to give free pieces away. We need a new website to play chess. Maybe Kramnik or Kasparov or Anand can team up with some rich people to do a better job.
@adomaskuzinas21378 күн бұрын
Hopeful fallacy! The problem is not within the platform, it is within the people using it. As long as you have humans competing there is gonna be cheating and other tries to get unfair advantages. Its like saying we should get some new rich people to control the drug problem. Well ive got bad news for you - we humans are (so far) imperfect and no matter what you do, there is gonna be evil and suffering out there! Also, forced restrictions arent the way, they usually achieve the opposite effect in the long run. The best way is education, teaching moral values at a young age and finding ways to keep them throughout.

@@Crashawsome If a player takes a peek at the evaluation bar once or twice a game (without looking at any engine moves), there is no statistic that will catch him, and yet he would be cheating. If he gets some kind of signal that tells him his opponent just made a weak move, that would be almost as good as getting an engine move, especially for an already strong player, but there is no statistic that will reveal this. The cheater would still have to find the right plan on his own, but just knowing there IS a good plan available would improve his play measurably. The problem is that this improvement would be indistinguishable from the improvement he might get from studying more, or just having a good game more frequently. He would still lose or draw games, just not as frequently. It's the same reason you're able to find combinations in puzzles much more successfully than you can in games. You know it's there and you keep working at it until you find something. Of course, sometimes you're wrong and your puzzle solution is incorrect, and that would happen in games, too, even if you got a signal telling you that something is there. But you would find the solution often enough that it would make a difference in your results. The stronger you already are, the bigger the difference such an approach could make. For somebody like Magnus, he could become practically unbeatable with one eval bar hint per game. Such a cheater would still be playing his own moves. The statistical needle would barely jiggle, and yet he would still be cheating. He would forever be under the radar.

It's amazing how Kramnik, who was caught violating the platform's rules while playing in a money tournament - which, by Kramnik's own words, amounts to a criminal offense - can discuss cheaters and give any sort of evaluations. The fact that he didn't end up in the prizes in those tournaments where he used another GM profile doesn't mean he didn't prevent another player from getting prizes, which means he affected the outcome of a TT tournament. Essentially, Kramnik is an exposed cheater who got offended when he was exposed by the player he himself called a cheater. This is surreal.
