Im pretty sure it left an Impression on Magnus cause he could see the truth in the judgements. Its really well analyzed, truth, lie is a yes no thing, and if u dont answer yes - no there can be more than 1 answer , yes but he has some reservations on that or yes mainly truth but theres a bit more to that. That is a very exact response. And thats why you need to probe with another question to get the whole truth. and I think he was on point as much as possible. But the questionaire was not rehearsed in lie detector methods so its kinda meh on getting the full truth.

And it's not that hard either, much easier than being GM at chess. Polygraph is notorious in producing both false positive and false negative in large numbers and also highly manipulative by the examiner. The APA has very skeptical language warning about polygraphs being used for anything, and polygraph results are not admissible in most courts. Magnus is good at poker, and a good poker player should be able to consistently beat the polygraph with just a little bit training.

[@TitaniumTurbine]

⁠​⁠@@zxbc1 100% on the first part and mostly on the last part. A good poker player must be able to control their voice/tone, words, movements, gestures, show of breathing, and expressions - everything that is of face value. With a polygraph exam, more subconscious tells are introduced such as micro tics/twitches, heart rate, breathing rate, etc… things that can be harder for some to hide even with training/practice. Polygraphs are notoriously erroneous (as you stated), but unless you have one to practice with and even then… you might not be able to discover all your tells.

@@footballuniverse6522 Polygraph results are absolutely garbage. That's why they're not admissible in court in vast majority of places and even when they are, both sides have to agree first. Also the examiner basically has a huge discretion in interpreting the result, it's literally him deciding arbitrarily within a very large range of readings. I can't believe how many people take these results seriously.
