| Posted by tulkos uskidscompute.com 1/08/2003 17:34:57 play online chess | people who cheat like that Message: probably do it for the money, and sooner or later they'll be caught, and then they are kicked out from playing at all for life--- or at least for a long time. They gave good advice at the end of the artical though--- H'mmmm--- It just might work. 8-) |

| Posted by __mda__ uskidscompute.com 1/09/2003 12:39:46 play online chess | the sad fact is.. Message: as computers get smaller and cheaper, cheating is going to be a major problem at tournaments in the future.. I'm sure many of you have heard about people caught in vegas with "perfect card counting" computers hidden on their persons for playing blackjack ( one guy had a system where he'd tap numbers into the computer via his shoe ).. I fear this stuff is headed for chess tournaments where large $$$ is at stake. |
| Posted by triangulator uskidscompute.com 1/09/2003 13:30:32 play online chess | that is sad Message: however I was told by a friend that his opp was listening to music, he assumed it was rap, but then started to hear just regular talking and also the guy kept saying his moves out lound as he wrote them down- like N to...e6 . so he went to the TD and the TD found an exuse to make him get rid of it, the TD then when turned it on and there was someone sending messages through it- lines. I think the guy can't play in OK |

Chess news: Fresh ideas from Adams -- The Governor of Gibraltar Sir Adrian Johns visited the Gibtelecom Masters at the Caleta Hotel and chose the day the chess competition intensified as England’s Michael Adams regained a share of the lead with a ninth round win. Adams produced a new idea in the opening against the French Defence and although it did not look particularly dangerous he gradually outplayed the Argentinian GM Damian Lemos to reach 7/9. All the games were hardfought with the exception of the top board where the leader at start of play Jan Gustafsson was content to force an early draw against top seed Etienne Bacrot. With one to play Adams shares the lead with ... Vishy Anand helps Magnus Carlsen to claim Corus crown -- When Vishy Anand drew his first nine games at Corus Wijk aan Zee last week, opinions were divided on whether the world chess champion had lost his edge or was simply taking a well-paid rest before his April title defence in Sofia against Veselin Topalov. Then Anand acted as Corus king-maker, beating Alexei Shirov and Vlad Kramnik, so that the pair finished half a point behind Magnus Carlsen. Norway's world No1 had previously won at Pearl Spring in China and the London Classic and finished second at the Tal Memorial, His fine run continued at Wijk, and the live ratings now make him the all-time No2 to Garry Kasparov. Carlsen had final-round luck in Holland, and the impression is that ... World's No. 1 Chess Player Widens Lead Over His Biggest Rivals -- History will record 1990 as a great year for chess players: it was when three of the current top 25 players in the world were born. The youngest of the three is Magnus Carlsen of Norway, who is No. 1 in the world. Of the other two, Maxime Vachier-Lagrave of France is No. 18, and Sergey Karjakin, who was born in Ukraine but now plays for Russia, is No. 21. Under different circumstances, Karjakin and Vachier-Lagrave would be considered potential world chess champions. But just as the talented players in the 2003 N.B.A. draft have labored in LeBron James’s shadow, Karjakin and Vachier-Lagrave have been eclipsed by Carlsen. In Karjakin’s case, it is puzzling. He was the youngest ... | |
