[@zchesiq]

as someone who is 900+ i steer away from the opening thory as early as 2 moves. I just wing it

[@xyzpeekay]

im like 860 and i know just theory of my 2 openings but i suck anywhere else xD wanna play a game?

[@christodoulosstavrou2863]

winging it is the fun part

[@yeaiateit]

as someone who is 1600+, my approach is the same and it has been working out for me for now

[@cygnustsp]

I can get the first 4 moves of the Ruy Lopez and then it's a free for all

[@bestie_bubble]

i play like first moves of vienna gambit, and if they pull any random moves i just peace out from theory

[@valerius9751]

the cheater is missing some rather obvious tactics. he's probably mid-low triple digits without cheats

[@crypti1c]

tbf you can hit like mid-1000s without being well-versed on tactics. problem is you won't move up any more than that since most of your opponents definitely will be

[@doniman-]

⁠@@crypti1cwrong, low elo is dependent on tactics

[@yeethaye]

Yeah. I'm around 900, and I saw all the mates that he missed in the end. This is ridiculous.

[@youuuuuuuuuuutube]

700-ish.

[@Siraj-123-q5p]

Yeah someone who can't do a ladder mate has to be like 200 or 300, even players above 500s know how to do a ladder mate

[@jazzyx8968]

I never thought an accidental stalemate could be so satisfying

[@GlobalWarmingSkeptic]

Amazing exposure by Justin, did the only thing that essentially forced the cheater to consider playing their own moves to expose that they weren't on that level.

Rare moment of Levy slightly clickbating us:

[@Pulsar.88]

Only slightly?!? Wow he's changed 😅

[@divyekapoor4556]

Slightly??? Then what is a huge clickbait for you my friend?? Ok, I mean this one is slightly a clickbait but look at his other stuff haha. Still everytime there is a lot of learnings in Levy's videos. How not to play Chess😂😂

[@modernprometheus8876]

I had a similar one. Somehow despite my 2 blunders, several bad moves, my one brilliant move convinced my opponent I cheated

[@Siraj-123-q5p]

Not really anyone's fault here. Cheating has increased so much in online chess that it's natural that all players suspect one another of cheating when they are playing well. Even top gms are accusing each other of cheating these days.

[@Merlewhitefire]

That last game, I suspect he was 100% missing the checkmates on purpose because he was trying to BM by capturing every piece before mate Which makes it even funnier that he managed to stalemate.

[@androverse5786]

What’s BM

[@johnniewalker8186]

Actually winning or losing by cheating doesn't give any feeling for cheaters.

[@pathutchison7688]

I’ve been accused of cheating 3 or 4 times online. I always took it as a massive compliment. Then I would look at the analysis, and the computer would basically say “not only are you not cheating, but you’re also not really playing well. Idiot”. I added the “idiot” part, but only cuz I know that was what the engine was thinking.

[@MC-nv4bo]

Not many people know the small detail, but Vladimir Kramlich was instrumental at catching this cheater

[@youuuuuuuuuuutube]

Anyone could have caught him, honestly.

[@Not_that_Brian_Jones]

Boy, I will never know if somebody is cheating. I see it here because of GC's commentary, but i don't think I would pick up on this stuff on my own

[@veto_5762]

Some moves are a bit tricky to get, but if you know how to play you can spot when someone skips really obvious moves or a "good" player suddenly starts to undefend pieces and miss obvious blunders out of nowhere

[@anshumanpandey8547]

Judging from the last game ,the cheaters real rating is probably about 300-400. No matter how tunnel visioned you get, queen and rook ladder mate with the rook in front is just impossible to blunder. You can actually premove the sequence without worrying about king moving closer and capturing one of the pieces.

[@michaellancaster7092]

The first game, openings are so standard now, like everyone knows openings, almost every single possible move has been made. Not hard to belive someone knows a opening

[@bepohal]

in the range between 1500-1800 about 80% of the games are manipulated if you play via the app. while the desktop version is slightly better to play since you can't have the analysis board opened simultaneously. this site as well as the players are pure cancer to this beautiful game

[@zeljkomatic5986]

This last game is for all books.Epic.For cheating there should be punishment 25 years in jail.Cheaters are not human beings.

[@lilithkitsune7152]

Some of your early cheater videos from a long time ago are what caused me to stumble across your videos on a youtube trail starting at "times when speedrunners got caught cheating" really glad that it lead me to your channel because even though I don't really play chess, your videos are just great so I can keep up on the chess world from a pure curiosity standpoint. Really appreciate your videos, keep up the great work!

[@tussk.]

I played somebody earlier who played what looked like really stupid moves for the opening part of the game, then took a full 2 minutes before escaping a check, and now suddenly he's a grandmaster. I resigned rather than waste my time with somebody who was only interested in gaining a few ratings points. They think that they can get away with cheating if they play a few bad moves, but it's so obvious that they're using nextmove or similar. Frustratingly, of the two main sites I use, only one bans cheats, the other just gives them a red X on thier profile and allows them to carry on. It's getting to the stage where it's hardly worth playing at all anymore.

[@holyknightthatpwns]

Just don't play on a site that doesn't ban cheaters.

[@tussk.]

I don't, but they're so slow to take action that half the time they get away with it@@holyknightthatpwns

[@somerandompers]

[@spencergreeff5440]

What worries me is decent players who use cheats to save them from a bad position then play normal again.

[@RagnellAvalon]

Playing the opening (and possibly some of the midgame) and then seeing if the computer can salvage it is actually pretty interesting as an exercise...

[@Cl0ne66]

Dudes favorite opening is the Blunderbuss Gambit.

[@svenvannimwegen4936]

Ive been accused of cheating when i play a 85+ game even though im just a 1100/1300. I also play poorly at time (usually while comuting and tired of work)

[@TwistedSoul2002]

Don’t tell me that ‘Queen Pwnzalot’ is up to her shenanigans again…?

[@The-80s]

The chess game doesn't say that you have to read the letters from A to Z, it doesn't have to say that you have to move this piece because it's a proper way and it's a professional. The point is how you win the game, to lose some pieces or to gain some is not the key.

[@briantreadwell2206]

The nice thing about being a beginner - never heard of stockfish and don’t see the point of cheating at 1156 - i tend to play at my level, occasionally playing 1400 - i do ok for a while, but invariably get outplayed

[@gheffz]

It's the 'resign' that's the sealing move that gives away they are cheating. As soon as the eval bar goes a certain distance they resign... it's so consistent they have to be using an engine of some sort.

[@namelessone2299]

Ive gotten called a cheater despite my abysmal elo because i really dont know how to play well and just shotgun out moves that sometimes are really good but i dont realize

[@Anuboy6000]

When cheater was making its own moves💀😂

[@TheFritzcollection]

I knew a guy that i was in school with, i was so young that i did not understand he was cheating, but this gave me a way to catch cheaters better, they randomly resign cause they accidentally close stockfish.

[@verandream6675]

The idea of using a bot for the opening and then saying "all right, let's do one move of my own" and immediately losing the queen is hilarious

[@norbertdrust9009]

If games were still over the board it would take us back to before online games ushered-in a great way to cheat, no arbiters

[@jacovanburen4908]

I was accused of cheating (sandbagging) once. Because I played too "fast" in rapid. Well shoot me for liking blitz. Had a accuracy of less than 70%, so that answered that question.

[@RBB8S]

16:40 that queen move i see often at 600 elo chess.

[@jptothetree]

Don't give the guy too much credit. He may not even be 600

[@prime_vibes7019]

I always saw that move when I was at my first elo rating. 300 😂 Now that Im 1100 I grin whenever I see it again with a thought to my head "He thinks Im dumb. Now Im gonna punish him."

[@MarblaGarb]

Levy, please understand that cheating at the lowest levels of chess is even worse. 300-700 elo you will face the most cheaters of your career, and it’s usually obvious, when someone goes from blundering every move to suddenly only playing best moves for the rest of the match

[@neonjoe529]

I've been accused of cheating in endgames a few times... sometimes in the late game the best moves are easy to find.

[@Shrkx_]

"Laid men and gentle tease" -Gotham chess (Levy approved message)

[@funny_chess9959]

in the last game it was just 'goldfish' vs 'stockfish'

[@Faceless_time_traveler]

Hahaha wow the cheater didn't know how to ladder-mate? That's literally the first checkmate pattern I've ever learned when I was 6

[@uouo5313]

Ladder

[@Steve-xo4nb]

I don't know, maybe it's since I'm not too much into it, but I use a Random Number Generator. Every time the number lands between 20 and 40, I use stockfish to help me that game. I only hover around 1100-1000

[@FrowningWind213]

The 1st cheater had to be like “ooh free pawn, I don’t even need cheats to see this!”

[@FridayVlogsOfficial_]

How do you cheat in chess? It’s chess!

[@Lifeforcetvz]

The best thing in chess is winning against a cheater or losing to a cheater and get you’re elo back

[@jamesmorphe8003]

[@thefantom5171]

[@brass4235]

Cheated to get to a very high elo. Realized he was probably under suspicion, and purposely lost x amt of games in a row. Does that sound like it's reasonable possibility?

[@Christopher-of-Columbus]

As an elo 400 player, I’m often worried I’ll get banned for cheating if I manage to lose a game with my queen and a couple pawns still on the board.

[@Alexchess99]

Levy is a type of guy to upload his video while playing with Hikaru

[@avonray9147]

If I had a nickel for everytime Levy uploaded a video while playing a tournament and then ended up losing that match, I'd have 2 nickels (for today and the last IMSCC). Which isn't a lot, but it's weird that it happened twice.

[@jukezy46]

Impressive uploading a video while playing team chess

[@asdfasdf28595]

there is so many cheaters out there, its unbelievable. the thing is tho, a good cheater does not use all the engine moves but understands the idea behind some moves the engine is telling him. that makes it nearly impossible to be detected. i played against so many cheaters on lichess. people that lose against 500 and suddenly win against me (1600) with some moves that look so un-human. but yeah, its mostly 2nd or 3rd engine move.

[@hfanti]

I love when people stalemate themselves. It's the stamp of arrogance and stupidity on what could've otherwise been a solid win. Congrats.

[@youngpattysobased]

i stalemate myself but idk if it’s arrogance i’m just stupid 😭

[@razorfist246]

What cheating does to those people is only feed their ego. Their online ELO really goes up fast, but then their IRL skills on chess goes the opposite direction. lol

[@flashfocusbruh5144]

Another technique is when your opponent makes an instant move after EVERY move you make

[@manwithavan6199]

I got a ratings refund over recently over this stupid game where I knew the opening pretty well. Guy played the best moves through the opening then found horrible complicated middle game shenanigans that he calculated in like 3.5 seconds per move, consistently. So either he knew like 37 moves of theory in our line the reti gambit or he was cheating. Guy had won ten games in a row before mine.

[@SPORTS_XYT]

I got accused of cheating because i played well and i got blocked for no reason

I am 1700 in rapid and sometimes I just wake up with my brain totally turned off and knowing it's not my day I still play a few games and get my ass kicked like that guy in the video, sometimes even throw away my queen, my rooks totally for free (yes, 1700). I lose 10-15 games in row before I stop it angry at myself right there and leave it for another day. Then I win everything back eventually.
