The truth is that the grandmaster received an exhaustive security control this Friday that included a scan of the anus, at the entrance to the United States Chess Championship.
This comes days after being accused of using a anal chip or prostate massager to cheat in their games.
Security guards at the event scanned it with a metal detector -like all the people who tried to enter the premises- but with him they were much more thorough: they ran the scanner all over her back and near her buttocks to try to detect some device to cheat.
This happened at the gate. Saint Louis Chess Clubwhere the championship began this Tuesday, while the site chess.com opened an investigation against the young man 19 years claiming that “probably cheated” in more than 100 online matches.
Niemann, for his part, denied such facts and stated: “I’m not going to back down and I’m going to play my best chess here, regardless of the pressure I’m under.”
He even declared that he would be willing to play completely naked if necessary.
Niemann, the usual suspect
Suspicions of cheating have hung over young American grandmaster Hans Niemann since his third-round victory at the Sinquefield Cup over king of the chess pieces, Magnus Carlsen.
After that defeat, the world champion withdrew from the event and cast elliptical doubts about the “cleanliness” of his rival’s game. Then it all went haywire when the Norwegian withdrew from an online game against Niemann after just two moves, without explanation.
It was in the sixth round of the Julius Baer Generation Cup tournament, which is played online, belongs to the Champions Tour and is organized by Chess24.com, a company in which Carlsen is one of the largest shareholders.
The 19-year-old Niemann opened with a queen’s pawn (1.d4), Carlsen responded by taking his knight to f6 and when White continued with 2.c4, the European resigned. And without saying a word, he turned off his computer camera, to the surprise of all those who followed the duel, which had aroused great expectation among fans for what had happened on September 5 in St. Louis, United States.
