    Niemann cheated online many times but so far hasn't been caught in live play. He is like chess version of Mike Postle

    Right.
    I read the story straight though, this is the first time I'm hearing of this, I read it from three different sources, including the WSJ.
    First name that popped into my mind was Mike Postle.

    Others had to know besides Vanessa, come on, some of his shit was streaming live.

    Yes but it's also not exactly the same either. With Postle he cheated so blatantly that it was impossible for anyone to think he was playing legitimately after analyzing his hands. Neimann is actually a decent player and if he's cheating over the board, he's doing it very selectively which would be really difficult to detect just analyzing his games. It's likely he has an accomplice that's using an engine and relaying moves to him somehow for live streamed games. The anal beads things is a joke that was retweeted by Elon lol

    Serious Daggles, you leave me in stiches on a daily basis.
    God Bless you sir.
    After Postle, the second name it thought of was Fideles.
    I even said to myself "You know something Nasher, I bet Fideles would love this anal beads story"

    Crazy. Where is the sportsmanship?

    I used to be good at Sports Trivia. I was much better at Sports Trivia than General Trivia. Always a problem w/ people using the cell-phone for help, led to banning at times.

    Sportsmanship goes out the window soon as money and prestige is at stake
