As a runner what fabiano says at 22:10 makes sense. A lot of people start doping once their level starts stagnating or declining. So i believe there is a chance that Schevsheko almost got 2700 without cheating, then lost a lot of rating because of poor play and started cheating out of frustration and ambition. It is possible.

[@Pacalolo04]

[@cconnon1912]

I agree, the last little edge that is needed is where people go wrong.

[@NimbusDX]

This is indeed how it goes. People don’t usually cheat their way to the top. To get away with cheating, one first has to understand the game intimately. Rather, people get to the top and start cheating to get an edge. People justify it to themselves because they feel “Well I’ve worked hard. I got to where I am through legitimate effort and skill, so I’ve earned this” They feel they are capable of achieving the feat without cheating and cheating is just getting them to their ‘rightful place’ a little faster.

[@theKashConnoisseur]

To paraphrase Karl Jobst: "Skilled players don't cheat because they're bad at the game. They cheat to get what they feel like they deserve."

Yoo getting himself kicked out of the tournament really hurt Caruana's chances. Where he had a win, other players only had draws.

At approximately 26:20 Caruana praises the security measures adopted by the Saint Louis club. However, this same club questioned the reputation of Hans Newman in the match in which this player, playing as black, beat Magnus Carlsen. Carlsen abandoned the tournament like a spoiled child and began to pressure Hans N. to be put in limbo in the chess world. The Saint Louis Club was one of those that adhered to Magnus' wishes and began to ignore Hans N., even though they had nothing concrete against this player, even though their security system never indicated any cheating in that match by Hans N. Definitely a shame that tarnished the history of the Saint Louis Club.

He waited for that stall specifically, passing on the open one. He went many times, even after being warned. When an opponent came out to check, he walked out of the line.

On the Shevchenko story: you forgot another bizar thing: he went for the bathroom numerous times each game (Ive seen the number 10+ mentioned), in the second game first time at move 6. I remember Fabi (and others) say that if a strong GM gets help just once a game (at a critical moment), it would be a huge advantage. So 10 times, first game a draw?

In classical, if a 2650-2700 player plays a great game, getting a draw versus some engine lines is possible. As long as the game isnt complicated.

[@bojkashapirax6283]

​​@@user-vt4hd8hb4v Kramnik is taking it seriously but his methods and judgement are poor in execution. His shotgun approach makes him look far more paranoid than anything and ruins his reputation. Firing off 100 accusations and getting 2 correct doesn't justify the other 98, at a certain point it's a witch hunt and you're bound to be correct a couple times just due to the quantity of accusations. Unfortunately the few successful accusations have self-justified his behavior, continuing this destructive methodology.

[@WilliamCacilhas]

@@user-vt4hd8hb4v what do you suggest people do? Seriously. What is something that will prevent cheating in chess? What Kramnik is doing is not preventing cheating. It’s not helping. All he’s doing is asking people silly questions and then not accepting any answers to those questions. For example, “Where are you looking?”. This one is especially silly because Kramnik is on vudeo looking away from his screen during a game! In fact a lot of GM’s glance off into the distance when they’re thinking, even during OTB games! The fact that these GM’s also glance off during online games is not as suspicious as Kramnik makes it out to be. Hell, I glance off into the distance when I’m studying. According to Kramnik this must mean I have an answer key somewhere in the direction I’m looking (even if I get an answer wrong). Other than asking silly questions he post “statistics”. It’s been proven many times by real statisticians that Kramnik doesn’t know what the heck he’s talking about with these “statistics”. Even so these “just asking questions” & posting of “statistics” isn’t doing anything to solve the problem. It’s just making Kramnik look silly. It’s actually hurtful to the situation. Now if anyone has suspicions about a player they’re just being a Kramnik. This means people cannot voice their suspicions without fear of being labeled another Kramnik.

for those of you wondering why or if Fabi should be making these comments during a tournament he is currently participating in...usually this is something you would wait to do until the end of the tournament... my two cents is that Fabi still has more long term goals. the U.S. open is one of many many tournaments he will be participating in and therefore has a grasp on not letting the short term drama affect him while keeping focused on the long term. I still think Fabi has his eyes on the greater goal of being world champ... which he knows, at 32 years of age at the time of this video, is a ticking clock in the back of his mind. and that clock is what keeps him focused.

There is a gigantic difference between these two statements: - In 50% of online games there is a cheater on the other side. - 50% of players with an active online chess account have cheated in online chess at least once in their lives. Assuming (unrealistically) that all cheaters only ever cheated once and every person played a total of 1000 games, the difference would be a factor of 1000. For all discussants it is paramount to say exactly what you mean when you talk about these things.

I think the problem is public insinuation of cheating by top players of other top players without having to face any repercussions. For eg: Nepo is a sore loser and his insinuations against Hikaru/Danya (Nepo and Kramnik)/Gukesh (Nepo and Grischuk) are troubling.

Talking about the "best" method of cheating is a bit pointless, since it is almost impossible to be spotted from the outside by definition. What I did learn from the coverage of other cheating scandals and true crime stories is that cheaters get sucked into their new behavioral pattern. If this cheating case is real, I would assume that Shevchenko cheated many times before with less risk and just got used to a) the success of it and b) not being caught. Like a thief who keeps taking more at higher risks after not being caught - until finally he looks very silly when caught.
