  • Full Stream- • Champions Chess Tour: ...
    The Julius Baer Generation Cup is the 7th of 9 events on the $1.6 million 2022 Meltwater Champions Chess Tour and takes place on chess24 from September 18-25. The 16-player field will be cut in half by the 4-day round-robin Prelims. The total prize fund is $150,000, with $750 for a win and $250 for a draw in the Prelims.
    The quarterfinals and semi-finals are 1-day, 4-game matches, while the final will feature two such matches over two days. The players have 15 minutes for all their moves, plus a 10-second increment starting from move 1. In the Prelims there are 3 points for a win and 1 for a draw. If a tiebreak is required the players will play two 5+3 games and then, if needed, a single Armageddon game, where White has 5 minutes to Black's 4, but a draw counts as a win for Black. No draw offers are allowed before move 40. Official website: chess24.com/tour

      @willowkay Před rokem +4

      Yea, very realistic and down to earth. These situations are difficult but especially in the middle of active going ons it can be destructive, and it's probably just best to let things be normal until there is time to think about it without the collateral damage.
      Cheating accusations is honestly very funny coming from some other scenes, fps games in particular regularly get accusations of cheating, people 'seeing through walls' with strong predictions, when in reality they have played enough to know what to expect. They may make the same play 9 other times and it doesn't work, but its worth trying. They get accused of non legitimate aim, accusations of quick snaps or too clean tracking, ignoring that very strong players with a lot of experience are going to have normal or poor aim from time to time, but generally have good aim and sometimes pull off something crazy.
      There may be suspicions. And they may be valid. Those players may indeed be cheating, not unlikely to be using subtle cheats woven into genuinely good play to sell the effect. But when you are in a tournament, there isnt time for these things. You collect yourself, push it out of your mind, do your best, and investigate it later. Don't let it get to your head and affect your play, and even more and beyond dont seed it in others heads and affect their games.
      I don't necessarily disagree with magnus wanting to just not partake, it may be frustrating especially with his huge experience in the game. Especially if he is just very confident, super gms can identify engine moves really consistently as strange, or notice inconsistencies in move accuracy going all over the place. But i really think anish has the right mindset, even if you are suspicious of these things, push it away until it won't cause so much chaos. Let things play. If he was cheating, you know full well he's gonna make it clear he isn't in future games. If you wanted more potential analysis fuel, you wait. You get all the games and analyze. Now we have some maybes and an awkward interview and we just aren't going to get anything else. We're just gonna be stuck with a bunch of awkward drama that will eventually clear up, but no one knows the potential long form damage that may be dealt to the entire format.
      Idk. Accidental rant but it's just an unfortunate situation. I really hope it doesn't devolve into tribalism as well, I've heard good points from both sides but i am nowhere near confident enough to say for sure. For now, i will accept the information i have and wait until i can learn more. I just dont want to see the community split and argue defending one or the other vehemently, especially because of the extra weight that comes with Magnus' prestige as a player.
      We'll see what happens. For now, I will continue to watch the games and be impressed by their skill, since I'd never stand a chance against any of these players haha

      yes (i believe speed is advantageous), because both players don't have time, so all you need is 1-3 cheat moves and you're way ahead of your opponent on time and foresight. if you have 1 surprising cheat move, you can completely throw off your opponent and he will have no time to think or re-calculate. You know it's a top move but your opponent is confused or might not even realize it and play into your top move. As Magnus said, all he needs is 1 cheat move to win.

    Anish is poisoning the well buy making this all about cheating in insignificant tournaments on line during fast time controls when he was younger. It should only be about whether he cheated during the game they played and nothing else. The insinuations are that there was cheating during the subpar game both of them played when Magnus blew a number of moves when he could have equalized or had an advantage. As Karpov said, "White played a bad game.
    Magnus simply was a poor sport. His withdrawal caused Hans to no longer be leading the tournament because the game no longer counted.

There may be tournament rules, contractual stuff etc as well. Maybe he does think something is up and as anish said, you can't play with confidence if you think you are playing an engine. That could explain why he is not comfortable. He lost to lower rated young players before (Pragg for example) and at those times , nobody suspected anything and magnus didn't refuse to play them.

      Its way more likely that someone who has cheated on multiple occasions before, did it again. He probably did it even more then the 2 times he got caught.
      Idc either way, but literally all signs are pointing towards him cheating, from the answers he gave in interviews, to him drawing the next game even though he had a winning position and didnt realize (veryyyyyy weird for someone 2400+ to not notice) and so on.

      A proven cheater many times and now suddenly has the fastest rise ever from like the 2400 level to the 2700 level. Last time caught was only 3 years ago. Suspicion is 100 percent warranted.

    I miss half what Anish said, the game they are playing is mesmerizing. Pragg is so freaking strong. Carlsen is the world Champion, hope he speaks and explain himself, his attitude is below his stature as world champion, even if Hans cheated or something what he did today makes no sense and it is a disgrace. Sorry fanboys, I know your feelings gets hurt but we need to say the truth.

      "makes no sense"?? if he refuses to play against someone he believes is cheating, giving him the win is the perfect solution. there is no alternative. dropping out of the tournament makes no sense, what then? he drops out of every tournament Hans enters? no. this is the only move that makes sense.

      @@mrcrowe1848 the thing is to this day there is no evidence whatsoever of Hans cheating, just because Hans crushed Magnus now he thinks he is cheating? what a childish way of thinking coming from Magnus, it would have been more beneficial to actually play that game against Hans and see if more evidence of cheating could be found.

    What about Hans and his career AND his MENTAL HEALTH. I feel not enough people are taking those into account. Even if he's not guilty, whenever he plays in an event, a game or anything. The suspicion of cheating will likely always be there for organizers, fans, brands. That plus how he got to play and beat one of his idols. Has to be having an emence negative impact on his mental health?!?

      Hans should've thought of that when he was cheating online, even if he is innocent .. none if this would've happened if his record was clean.
      Magnus is not handling this perfectly of course, but he is not responsible for Hans public image and mental health lol.. that's all the consequences of his actions. Technically magnus never said anything and just didn't want to play hans .. Magnus has the right to do that !

      Well I guess it is some kind of mind games from Magnus or he is just bored and wants some drama lol, if I remember he left one tournament cause he didn’t want to play against Ian Nepomniachtchi and he said chess should be changed and he literally said he is bored… I don’t know… but at the end of the day all I know is that if for one person it is fun and games for other person (Hans) it can be really stressful and depressing so media should stop promoting this stupid drama and actually care about someone’s health or at least get a freaking evidence that Hans is a cheater…

      Then he shouldn’t have chosen to cheat and then become a celebrity in the field he cheated multiple times in. He could have picked a different hobby or job. He chose to continue in the field he wronged and has to live with the cloud of suspicion.

    What does it say that most super GMs are suspicious of Hans including the world #1, knows he is a player who can't play at their level and is a bad player most of the time (compared to super GMs), has cheated previously in online chess, and just recently made a meteoric rise to 2.6K? And people will still go around and act like Hans is a clean player. What a joke.

    Many will doubt Hans no matter what. If I were Hans, I would already be talking to my lawyer. Magnus has damaged Hans' aspirations of making chess his profession, and it is worthy of litigation because Magnus stated as an accusation on the record by INFERENCE (which is different from mere implication):
    " I would accuse you of being a fu**ing cheater .... but you could rightfully sue me."
    See why that logic is already worth a lawsuit? ☺
