@ZsebtelepHUN Жыл бұрын

Im not a cheater-catcher expert, but i think in the very first game once the cheater took all his opponents pieces, he thought "okay im gonna nail this from here on my own", didnt pay attention to the engine anymore, premoved to took the last pawn with the rook, and then realized he stalemated. Levi was generous with thinking he just 'didnt want to get caught'

FYI, in that first game, the black king had already moved, so he had already lost his right to castle. I’m not totally convinced that he was cheating at all the first game. A lot of those moves seemed pretty natural. Capturing when able, moving pieces that are under attack, and I think they just didn’t see the stalemate.

But not only do i get to see some chess played at such a high level that makes even Super GMs lose their minds, i also really like the fact that we get some comeuppance for people who cheat which just gives it that nice cherry on top at the end.
