My opponent from this video has now been banned :)

Cheaters play dumb moves to lower their accuracy. Then later in the game they come back and rip your heart out. They want to avoid the high accuracy games. He has probably been caught before and just made a new account. There is no way around it. All it really takes is a move or two in critical positions to get the win. They don't cheat on every move. They have learned and evolved! If you look at his account he has just lost like 20 games in a row!🤣

Dude he played every move without even taking 2 seconds. Obviously cheating. His moves were soulless .

I have a small trick to avoid potential cheaters: check when your opponent’s account was created, if less than 1 year ago - probably cheater or smurf, but it works on 1500+ elo

No games against new accounts, no rematches against anyone. Two basics I stick to in online chess which save me a lot of wasted time.

wait.. the rudraksh guy is most likely friends with the tanmayrajput and they are versing each other to get some losses in, i reckon that if you check their games together they won't have insanely high accuracy on those. the difference of playing each other rather than strangers to lose is that if they play each other its much safer because it doesn't risk the stranger potentially reporting them because thats how cheaters are caught over time, its due to various reports, but if they play with each other they negate that risk and make their accounts seem normal while also lengthening the amount of games they have on the accounts to make it look more normal rather than just 4 games in total with 95/96% accuracy in all 4 of them. important to notice that instead of being friends maybe its 1 guy with 2 accounts because if you notice the rudraksh account is higher rated and tanmayrajput lost all of those games against rudraksh so maybe rudrakksh is his main account which would make sense because he is higher rated than tanmayrajput so maybe he is prioritizing his elo onto the rudraksh account, in the video we also saw that the rudraksh account is older than tanmayrajput so that reinforces my point of being 1 person with 2 accounts and rudraksh is their main note: they are also both from india, coincidence?

One of the reasons I don't take online too seriously anymore... In person is more rewarding even if it's only against friends and family

cheating at chess is just cheating yourself.

i think recently since 2020 or even before chess became very popular because of streaming and popular competitive online games tend to attract cheaters sadly. even the biggest triple a video game companies cant seem to solve the cheating problem so sadly cheaters are just something we will have to live with in online chess for the foreseeable future :(

I am 2100 blitz and vsed a 900 elo cheater a few days ago, it was so sad

I played a guy like this the other day, except he had games under he had lost over the last few weeks, but played above the clock and played at 97. something accuracy, it was insane

It is only fun to play at a high rating if you understand the games. No one would be impressed by your chess rating if you could easily discern their cheating with a Quick Look on their profile. This means that the guy does it to purely boost his ego which is weird when you cheated you way there. Playing at that level without cheating would just mean getting crushed 10/10 times which isn’t fun

@4:38 you consider different moves where Qb5, Nf6, e6 are mentioned as candidates. In such positions, especially if you are material up and prefer a safe way forrward (useful in blitz and rapid); as a rule of thumb, always look for moves that probably can't be avoided without serious concessions. In that position (4:38), after white recaptures on d4, I would say that e6 can not really be avoided, because e5 is not realistical. e6 also allows the f8-bishop to develop, and the knight can develop via either Nf6, or Ne7-c6 (or to f5). The f8 bishop should probably not go to g7, as that would require the additional g6 move as a preparation, losing time and making the already weak e5 square more critical later on. Given the above reasoning, I would appreciate being a pawn up and prioritize safety for the king and rapid development. My first move would be e6, no doubt, followed by developing the f8-bishop to d6 blunting whites f4 bishop in the process. I would then follow up with Knight to e7 and to c6 to put pressure on the pawn on d4, that can no longer be defended by a pawn (a big bonus). I would then castle king to safety and starting to focus on the pawn on d4. My queen would probably eventually find her way to b6 and the a8-rook would go to c8 and aiming to double rooks on c-file. If white allows major trades of rooks or queen, then this is a big advantage for black. I would say the position is already almost lost for white strategically. (Most probably computers would point out the above development scheme for black, but perhaps without the thought process, so I hope the comment helps. I am not an IM/GM-expert myself, but used to that position type.)

TOTALLY agree .... Li Chess is even worse. It's not worth logging on.

I mean listen, even i considered only pawn to e6 and rook to c8 moves. I did not considered knight to f6 at all because i was thinking about the threats. I was like what does knight to f6 do? Just open the pawn get ready to castle fast.

You know what the worst part is? You don't even know if you played and lost to a cheater if you don't have the membership because you can't do game review. I'm sure i have played many cheaters by now thinking that they were just good players.

58:08 This might be the weirdest part of the video. The position is of course a theoretical draw the whole time. Makes you wonder what kind of engine is used there that can lead to such a misevaluation.

This pawn sacrifice has actually been played before, lichess shows a game from '93 - idea is: Nb5, Bf4 attacking the knight and targeting the c7 square. It's not amazing for white but interesting.

Shocking ban 😂!

Rc8 not Nf6. Though it did not matter since he cheated and you would lose no matter what you did, if he wanted to win.

Give this Job to Kramnik, he’ll be so happy after getting a job to report someone 😂😂😂, but really well played though😊!

58:10 is a draw - black is not winning.

Bro what’s your hair style?

Kramink is right tho :D

Not cheating you r just 800 elo

says the 2000 whos killing 1500
