"How do we know he's not cheating" "Sir he's better than our engine"

[@Wileoo]

well technically he lost to stockfish but in some cases yeah

[@JMarcusPedroza]

Seriously though 😂

[@obi-wankenobi5411]

No one is better than chess engines. Even the weak ones are above 3500+ these days. And stockfish is like 4000+. But for computers, ELO gets calculated differently. If they were rated like humans, stockfish would be above 5000. And magnus barely touched 3000. The difference is night and day. To stockfish, magnus would be someone who just learnt chess. So no, he is not better than engines. That simply is not possible. If god played chess with stockfish, stockfi would probably manage to force a draw one or twice. That's how powerful it actually is.

[@Wileoo]

@@obi-wankenobi5411 its a joke bro

[@reyanshagrawal2613]

I would try to fill your brains with the data that magnus bot drew full strength stockfish 10 times out of 10 when white. I can't, because you don't have any.@@obi-wankenobi5411

[@TheDinkyy]

TLDR Magnus gets a win rather than a draw despite having only a king and a bishop, despite Alireza being three pawns up in an opposite color bishop end game. This is because checkmate is TECHNICALLY possbile, even though extremely unlikely at GM level. Alireza also calls Magnus's conduct into question because he alleged that him swearing at himself in Norwegian was done deliberately to distract. The word "cheating" is never used at all other than the clickbait title

[@auspiciousjelly3919]

The checkmate possibility was not just extremely unlikely at GM level. It was almost impossible at any level as even white had to throw everything so hard. In short, both sides had to work together for the checkmate

[@exander77]

I was distracted by Alireza dropping pieces all over the board and I didn't even play the game.

To call this a cheating accusation seems a bit too strong. Magnus was accused of violating a rule regarding his behavior during the match (an accusation that doesn't hold up). I would think cheating implies getting outside help, or sneaking a piece off the board or something.

There just isn't many scandals in professional chess, so when there is even a TINY scandal it gets blown out of all proportion.

My take.... MC shouldn't be cussing, AF should have been calmer in the endgame, even under time pressure (as he is nowadays, with a bit more age and experience), getting flagged and losing is the rules so I guess the reality of MC having a lost position and winning rather than drawing is just tough shit. AF will and has learned and MC doesn't seem to have such histrionics over the board these days either.

[@ItIsYouAreNotYour]

"No taking" rule is bs. Bring some excitement with shit talk and blow horn fans calling you nasty names. You can't even golf clap.

While I think MC is the clear winner, it seems a bizarre rule that a player should bring up questionable behavior by another player during the game.

[@tomatoisnotafruit5670]

it's not bizarre, if Alizera won would he bring up Magnus swearing at himself? No he wouldn't, he would say ah that's no problem, but now that he lost on time, now all of a sudden it's a problem?

[@DreamWayClub]

The argument that this was a draw, because it's allmost impossible to checkmate by Magnus in this position is bullshit. Thats why we need time rule. What if a person have 5 different moves, that all obvious for anyone over 1000 elo that leads to checkmate in one move, but he run out of time? How should we avaluate this? A draw, or maybe a win for a dominant position? In my opinion even if you have only king on the board and other person can't checkmate you and run out of time, it should be your win. But rules are rules, everybody play under the same conditions.
