[@das6109]

@@ma9or1503 If a 900 rated guy asks to play a Chess GM for $250 on Twitch, he's either a cheater, or he considers it a fun way of donating to someone he likes. Obviously he knows he won't win normally, and obviously the GM knows the 900 elo guy knows that. There's no lack of morals here for the GM accepting this. Their fan wanted to play them and wants to donate to them, great. It's not like this is some contract either, the user could just not pay when they lose if they don't have the kind of cash they're offering to throw around. These 'donations with extra steps' are pretty obvious. It's the same thing when someone asks a player to do a 'challenge' like 'I'll gift you 10 subs if you get a pawn checkmate'. The player isn't secretly hoping you are unable to do that so they don't have to pay, they just want to see you attempt this challenge and hopefully succeed. Your basketball analogy doesn't make much sense btw. If it was like a top ten player using a smurf account rated 900 that might make some sense. A better analogy for what happened here would be saying we're gonna do 100 free throws and see who gets more, and then rolling out a robot that never misses to make the shots. It's not a better player hiding their strength, it's a player taking a car to a track meet.

[@FS4SS]

@@teslainvestah5003 Well let's put it into perspective. Let's start by assuming that Nikhil is actually a 400 rating strength player and isn't a Super GM in disguise. Then let's consider the possibility that he just had a very good game. That should be possible for a 400 rated player to have a very good game and beat a super GM, right? The short answer is no, that is not possible. It's hard to explain why if you're not an experienced chess player, but one way might be to talk about what the rating number actually means. A difference of 400 rating strength is one of the pillars that the ELO system is based on - theoretically, a player will *always* lose to someone playing at an elo strength that is 400 points higher. 100% chance to lose - that is a defining characteristic of the ELO system. In practice, rating doesn't always correlate to strength - some days an 800 rated player will play like a 1000; other days, a 600. As humans, we vary greatly day to day. That being said, Vishy is showing a rating of 2434 (he must hardly play on that account because he should easily be over 3000, as a recent world champion). So let's use that 2400 number. Nikhil would have a 0% win chance, against an 800 rated player who would have a 0% win chance, against a 1200 rated player who would have a 0% win chance, against a 1600 rated player who would have a 0% win chance, against a 2000 rated player who would have a 0% win chance, against Vishy Anand. So no, Nikhil cheated. The best game that Nikhil could ever comprehend playing in his best possible day wouldn't let him win against someone who has 1/3rd of Vishy's strength.

I know who Magnus is from watching an awesome documentary of him a long time ago, and chess is one of my favorite games. I really didn't know that it was even possible to cheat at chess. I have always thought that where ever correct you decide to move a piece is where you want it, I don't understand...

[@das6109]

Basically computer programs called 'engines' can analyze a tremendous depth of positions with very efficient branching (knowing what move to check next and which to discard) now. They have long since surpassed human analysis even by the top players. Anyone can beat the strongest super GMs simply checking what move to play from an engine. Of course an amateur has to check with the engine every time, as even missing a single tactic may put the cheater at enough of a disadvantage that the gm can beat them despite the engine's stronger play. This is why when players suspect engine play they often play closed defensive positions that force a longer game. Since the gm can play great moves almost immediately, and the cheater must reference the engine each move to gain advantage, it's possible to win vs the cheater in lower time formats like blitz. That's how Magnus won in this video.

@@outkast187 Lol that's not the same analogy at all. Chess AI has been shown to be better than any human alive. That's just the nature of AI, they can see moves many steps ahead in real-time. The cheater lost because he wastes time inputting the chess moves and probably has the basic engine that takes longer to compute moves. Stockfish is still superior.

4:37 Not exactly. Stockfish could probably have defeated magnus. But the cheater had to manually enter the moves suggested by Stockfish and probably also had to manually enter the moves made by Magnus so Stockfish knew the position. So the cheater had to spend seconds on every move. A good player that cheats might be able to play some obvious moves quickly but a bad player cheater can't. And even a good player that cheats will still need some time to to gives the moves to Stockfish after he quick played them so that his ability to play some obvious moves quickly is mostly negated if his opponents keeps playing quickly. The end result is that the cheater runs out of time. Of course, Magnus is an extremely good player and he knows the tells of a cheater and he knows the strengths of Stockfish so he tried to keep the board in a position where the computer doesn't have a big advantage over him. And even if Magnus didn't *know* for sure that his opponent was cheating (he probably did), he was assuredly seeing how he was bleeding time and played on that. A loss by end of time with unhurried moves at the end is by itself a big tell that there the player is a bad player cheating. A good player that is about to run out of time will play more quickly. He will probably make some blunder because of that but his overall chess level will still remain decent or half-decent. A cheater will refrain from doing that because doing so means playing without the help of Stockfish which will quickly show how abysmal their real chess level is; they can't afford to do that so they keep the slow pace and lose by lack of time.

[@riesenhobbit3958]

Funny thing is, when a grandmaster reports stuff like this, the opponent gets banned right away. If it happens to a low rated player like me, they dont even take a look at it. i cant even tell how many points i lost against 1700 players with an accuracy of 95-98%. thats ridiculous

I don't know much about chess, so can someone explain why Anand resigning helped expose the cheater. Is it just because the shock of him losing would draw more attention? Vishy a G for that regardless.

[@classScribbler]

A few facts: - The billionaire guy is actually a known cheater. His wife left him because of it some years ago - Anand was unhappy that the guy used his name in the media and gave the impression that they were "buddies" - Anand was also unhappy and his manager(his wife) distanced him from any support of the cheating - The guy is also a known moron who resting on the laurels of his elder brother. He is seen as a pestering presence in the company Also, I think he might just have resigned given the position and not thought much about it. However, once it is known that someone was cheating in a charity match, no one takes that lightly. Zerodha runs the largest trading platform in India. Imagine how much of order flows he is monetising.

Some moves in chess humans just don't make....stockfish sees 17 or 18 moves ahead and gives you the best possible move, something no human can do even magnus.... that's why when they see these moves that don't make sense they get suspicious and 10 moves down the line they are confirmed....also when they use the around the same amount of time in between each move they make is a big cheater tell.... that signifies them inputting the position, reading the move, playing the move... normally about 7-10 seconds on every move means you're playing a cheater. That's also why cheaters tend to lose on time but never checkmate

Slight misconception, not even Magnus can beat Stockfish, a cheater however is human and requires a set amount of time to use the engine, which means Magnus can move nigh immediately and the cheater will simply grind down his clock. That is to say, it's literally the only way he could have won that game.

[@AxOwLynx00777]

@@yes-qw6om You pretty much dumbed it down, but that's exactly what I said, and technically it only takes a few seconds at a time to process upwards of dozens of variants of the move, mathematically computing the best possible outcomes from the top down. In other words, the engine can't lose, the cheater simply cannot instantly input Stockfish's commands and thus the reason they lost is because of human limitation, not computation.
