Cheating in Chess Tournaments!? Jan 6, 2016 10:55:30 GMT

The Bulgarian chess master Borislav Ivanov has been strongly suspected of cheating. Despite a sub international master rating he has been consistently beating highly ranked chess grandmasters. His moves quickly played were almost always the same moves that strong chess computers would choose and are very difficult for humans to find because of the complicated calculation necessary.

In an unconstitutional search Ivanov was expelled from a tournament after an electronic device was allegedly found. The tournament directors probably fearing a civil suit returned his entrance fee.

I and humans in general have virtually no chance against these computers which can have a player strength rating over 3,000. No human grandmaster has ever maintained a 3,000 rating.

Hunny: It's not your fault you can't find it. It's not there! (Only possible reason would be your location.) So..I can't un-tick it either. Nov 2, 2024 17:19:54 GMT *

trubble: It does not say invisible anywhere for me, I'm on the right tab I think. If you can switch it for me, please do. If not, oh well, doesn't matter really.

Hunny: Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.
That way, when you criticize them, you are a mile away from them
and you have their shoes.
