  • Featured is an instructive blitz (3+1) game between 14-year-old FM Artem Dyachuk and Vladimir Kramnik from January 23rd’s Late Titled Tuesday. After the game Kramnik was quick to report Dyachuk, who he suspected of cheating. I reviewed the game with an engine, using my own experience, factoring in move times, and throwing key moments under the microscope. I feel this was simply a well-played and honest game by a young talented player.

      It's disappointing to see. He was right. Online cheating is a big problem that doesn't have enough attention on it, especially at high level. But then he goes and blunts all his credibility with spurious accusations made after he loses blitz games based on nothing other than he FEELS like something was funny about the game. If that were one of my games and I saw that analysis after the game, I probably wouldn't be suspicious unless the opponent had the flat move time graph on top of it. And that's me. A club level wood pusher who will never see the sunny side of 2000 fide.

      Kramnik just beat dubov in a Blitz game in titleTuesday yesterday man. It just doesn't make sense when players play so much better online than they do OTB because it's the same game. Increments and mouse movements don't make such a huge drastic difference. And they don't among the best players except for maybe hikaru for obvious reasons. Fabiano caruana says probably more than 50% of the people cheat online entitled Tuesday Hikaru amd nepo says it's probably over 20%. No one is calling kramnik crazy except for a bunch of kids on social media and probably people who all cheat themselves I bet everybody in thisthread uses multiple accounts on the website breaking tos. Esports have not been respected by Western Society for 30 years and that's never going to change unfortunately. Kramnik is simply having a culture shock at how all the anonymity leads to immaturity and dishonesty. Ratings online are absolutely meaningless they mean absolutely nothing and that is a major problem and sign something is wrong.

    I agree with your explanation. The queenside attack looks natural, even to a guy like me; the king-side defence is reasonable (i would probably not have found it myself, but am FM should be albe to find it).. and the fact that engine wants exf5, but Artem continued with hus plan on the queenside, speaks for itself.

      As an 1750-1950 OTB player who has competed in the USCCC (U.S. correspondence chess championship), once making the finals, back in the 1980s when the best computers were rated 1500-1600, some players (me) have a lot more variance than others. My blitz rating is, at best 950. Any player who can blitz at 2800 should be able to play OTB at at least 2180 (subtract 220 points because online blitz ratings are about 220 points more than OTB in this range) for 2580, and then another 400 points for variance. This player is definitely in the suspicious zone, but this one game doesn't prove cheating. In certain openings on specific days, I've played easily 2250, and one game was Fischer level until I blundered at the critical point (exact move order of Fischer-Spassky for 20+ moves, 8 years before their match in the 1990s). But yeah, this game is uncharted territory, and challenging. Krammnik knows this kid's OTB game has holes that aren't in this game.
      However, if I had five games at Fischer level, even I would think I was cheating.

    I'm no expert on the matter, but I think you're right, Jerry. I think the kid played a great game and kramnik, with some justification due to recent events, was suspicious. It's a beauty of a game but by no means perfect. I hover around 1800 rapid and 1600 blitz and I've played quite a few very high accuracy games at similar times controls, it happens somewhat often actually. I've also played a ton of absolutely horrible games. I don't think it's a stretch at all that this young player just had a really good day, or at least 1 really good game.
    With all due respect, kramnik may just be paranoid about cheating and it's affecting his play and his broader outlook on the game.

    Obviously, I have no idea what really happened in this game and whether anyone cheated--the young FM OR even Kramnik (unlikely given the outcome, BUT if he's gonna "throw stones"), but Jerry makes a very good argument against the younger player cheating, particularly with the later-game failure to play the "best" move of e4XF5. Perhaps Kramnik would beat this person 19 times out of 20, but just as I'm sure most all of us have lost in chess and other activities to someone far less talented on a rare occasion--because we played more poorly and/or they were "lucky" or just extra insightful/skillful and temporarily played above their level, it appears that Kramnik met that fate here. It appears that no one (unless you're one of the ones actually cheating) REALLY knows what's going on here with the cheating and who really is and who isn't, but I am getting really tired of some of these top (or former top) players automatically assuming that the opponent is cheating just because the normally higher rated player lost. I think in many cases, their egos/pride are getting the best of them, and they aren't man enough and sportsmen enough to admit defeat. I take the cheating accusation very seriously, and if one of these players who gets accused of it BUT hasn't actually cheated would literally kick the accuser's ass, I'd love it...and it would be well-deserved. If you're going to try to ruin someone's reputation, you better be damned sure. Also, IF it can be clearly proven--not just this statistical computer analysis crap--that someone cheated, then the penalties should be high...for non-FIDE ranks, loss of 200 rating points and barred from all tournaments for three to five years, and for FIDE-titled players, loss of ALL FIDE titles (including a World Champion title) and the same time-limit bar. (Perhaps a monetary penalty too...especially for higher-rated players and higher stakes tournaments.) For a second offense, loss of ALL FIDE titles and ALL rating points, and you're barred from tournaments for life. That simple! But, besides the ultimate integrity of the players, since tournament directors, the USCF and FIDE know this crap occurs now in the age of AI, they all have been really lazy and are at fault for not "securing" tournaments--both with the strict penalties I suggested--and by pre-tournament screens/scans, clothing/jewelry/etc. restrictions, and very close monitoring with whatever is needed (I'll leave this to the techies.) to all but guarantee the integrity of the game.

Kramnik basically exposed to website for not even treating everybody the same when the top 10 players are who should be checked for cheating the most as Maxime said himself. It's a disgrace.

      Good point but the move Bf1 looks fine and human to me. However, overall his own moves in this game were no more 20% (anybody can check this), the rest seem to be all engine moves!!! Shameless cheating and lawlessness on the website!!! He destroyed Kramnik in some 35 moves with a mate. It's very hard to beat Kramnik like that even for Magnus. Only an engine can do it so easily. Also the cheater beat Kramnik on time. No surprise there either. At the crucial moment the cheater spent only 6 seconds while Kramnik spent more than 30 seconds. Why bother calculating deep many-move lines with sublines and subvariations? No need to strain yourself when you can beat the super GM just stupidly checking the engine + saving time + playing the necessary move. The cheater don't need to have crucial moments -- it's engine + human play. Often they choose the moves which are 2nd and 3rd line engine suggestions. This is necessary, otherwise the game will be way too perfect, way too strong. You know in blitz an engine can easily beat any human while being even a minor piece (a knight or bishop) down. Of course, it easy to turn the tables and accuse Kramnik: What's wrong with you, why you play with the accuracy of 80%? Well, my answer: folks, try playing tactical complicated and open positions vs engines in blitz and see what will happen to your accuracy!!!

    • @billmorrigan386
      @billmorrigan386 4 місяці тому +2

      I need to clarify my point. He made almost 20% of his own moves just because in the opening (usually around first 10 moves) everyone plays himself choosing his/her lines from the personal opening repertoire. If we don't count the opening stage, the cheater made more than 90% engines moves!!! By doing so he neglected his kingside totally but that was fine as the engine had everything under control calculating more than 10 moves ahead. There was no chance for Kramnik, everything was losing for him. It's such a joke. His attack didn't go anywhere and it couldn't go anywhere as the engine had everything secure, albeit from the human perspective the attack seem extremely dangerous and required thinking and playing on the kingside to secure it but the cheater didn't care (the engine controls everything) and went on to easily crush Kramnik like if Kramnik was 600 Elo points weaker than him!!! Totally engine signature: the engines are not afraid of exposing the kingside at all for attacks; they simply calculate everything 10+ moves ahead and can afford totally exposing the king. The game looks like bad luck for Kramnik but it's not bad luck because the kingside was never really exposed: the engine controlled everything, i.e. it only seemed exposed for humans. For engines there was no luck, everything was calculated very deep long before poor Kramnik sacked his knight (=the engine saw the sac and ten moves after that and calculated that it is good. NO HUMANS CAN PLAY LIKE THAT)!!!

I am not saying it is a bad move, just that I would not have played it. It seems to work because of the follow-up with A4.

At this point most people think that his real motivation is, that he just can't cope with losing in chess... Not well done, not at all.

      @bleekcer absolutely wrong and the website open themselves up to a lawsuit by claiming such nonsense. Reporting a player is not accusing anyone of cheating neither is asking if they are cheating it's really a question and the burden is on the website to accuse them or not. When all your kids on social media get so upset about this it makes you look like a cheater yourself. And I'm willing to put down money that you use multiple accounts on the website which would confirm you are. And just because all the cheating kids on social media and all the streamers are calling him a clown doesn't mean all the top 100 title players and all the of the Chess World do not support him. You probably don't even follow chess

    What a shame, accusing such a young talented individual of cheating because they whooped you so good. His whole ego just got flushed down the toilet along with his reputation. I for one like this kids strategy, I probably would have played the same way, at least in the beginning. Once the game gets going its like a work of art, definitely leagues ahead of myself.

    usually GMs get really pissed when they lose from a lower rated player, they go cry filing a complaint that his opponent was cheating. in lichess, whenever i demolish a GM, usually my account gets banned, i did not cheat, but they complain that i was playing too good to beat their asses.

      That's because lochess is a more legit website. for example they put right in their TOS they make no exceptions for Speed running because it encourages rating manipulation. The corrupt site only cares about money. they want ad money from The Smurfing streamers and they want ad money from all the accounts on file. The more the better.

      There was nothing wrong with reporting someone it's just a check you should be doing it every time you suspect someone of cheating. Kramnik also studies all his opponents and he probably already reported this kid and already knows he's a 2200 rated OTB player who lost 100 points this year including 20 points in January but for some reason turns into God online and is Smashing 2900s.

The man is one of the greatest players in history, and none of you are fit to sit at the board with him. An interesting solution would be for Kramnik to play OTB games against the people he accuses of cheating. It would be interesting to see how confident they are then...

      Many of these random world class online players perform terrible OTB, some of them not even playing IRL. But sure, there is nothing suspicious at all with all these unknown players popping up. Anyone can find deep engine moves in seconds right, especially the 1500 elo experts in the comment section.
