I will defer my opinion to that of someone who knows more about chess than me. According to Grand-master Anatoly Karpov's analysis of the game:
Maybe Niemann cheated, maybe he didn't. But the true is that the reason Carlsen quit was because he got flustered. He could've, and as a matter of fact had previously, kicked Niemann's ass with skill. He could've made this a draw, keep playing the tournament and still dominate. But he played one bad game and had to throw a hissy fit of historical proportions.
You have no evidence and are obv biased against Carlson. Go watch the interview and then see if u still believe Hans. Carlson aside Hans does not have the skill to even remember his own thought process when working this obscure line? Proof right there.
It doesn't matter whether Niemann has or doesn't have skill to play whatever. That's not proof of anything. The point is Carlsen played like a fool and got mad at himself and decided to quit. Then to indirectly accuse Niemann of cheating without basis. And for your information, I don't have a bias against Carlsen, I hate all chess player equally.
You're pretty passionate about it for some odd reason. Sounds like u got mated in 4 and can't take it...lol
A chess player skewered my dog with a bishop and I can't get over it. I've played chess extensively, easily the most toxic and elitist group of twats I've ever met. Bloody chessplayers, they ruined chess.
I usually say the same thing about the British and the rest of the world, funny.
