Usually nowadays they play 1st, or 2nd, or 3rd move, even 4th sometimes, even if they get -1/-1,5 positions. Then in the endgame (or late middlegame) they turn into Carlsen and in crucial positions they Always find the best move, within few seconds
Danya: "i will stay away from that chess cheating drama, no matter how many times people ask me to say something". Chess gods: " u may now play a match with a cheater for the speedrun"
On lichess, I play a lot of puzzle positions with Stockfish level 5 to see if I can checkmate it. After the first 15 moves or so, it is clearly apparent from the facts that each move takes the exact amount of time, there are no premoves, even the obvious ones, and in your case finally the strength of play to indicate that you were in fact playing against an engine. Pretty sad seeing these cheaters on a speedrun. On the other hand, Danya vs Stockfish is definitely something I'd be interested in :)
4s per move from the start yuck but this shows how insanely strong Daniel is, he had a response for every move the computer did. Also 11:17 looks like a good puzzle, overloaded queen/pin/removing the defender.
@@FenShen-us9tv Bookmoves are not from the computer. Bookmove just means it's Theory of some sort. Theory is choosen by people. There are countless lines of official Theory (Bookmoves) that leave the one that plays it at objectively -3 or something (Something a Computer would never do in a million years). For example the Englund Gambit. All Bookmoves, leaves you at I think -4 or something with perfect play. The double Muzio Gambit in the Kings Gambit Main Line is another example. Because it's main Line theory doesn't mean it's objectively any good. Sometimes you just play your theory and the computer wants to murder you for it.
I've started a vocab list of words to learn/use more that I've heard Danya use in his streams: Circumspect Convoluted Endemic Gradation Revulsion Phalanx
My computer hits depth 40 fairly quickly, and I've compared it to engines on phone, ipad, etc. This guy was either using a phone/ipad that caps out around depth 25 or trying to hide that he was cheating and keeping it even in the first half of the game, or maaaaybe played a normal game until time pressure then started using the engine, but once you two started moving quickly it was blatant inhuman engine moves all the way through. I agreed with Danya that little about the first part of the game was suspicious beyond that it was relatively accurate in a newer line, but the position was easy enough to play as long as long as you develop normally and improve your pieces. Love seeing you play the Caro, I always hate facing the panov. The lines that Jovanka's book that I'm using recommends are very sharp and I've gotten blown off the board numerous times playing a friend in it. I always slept on the panov because I personally dislike IQP structures but now that I've started studying it to learn how to play against it, it's quite a fascinating structure to study. Shame we didn't get to see a more human game persay in this line but you at least got to show us how to reach equality in this line against engine play which is more than valuable enough. Love the speedrun so far!
@@nagoshi01 Lol nice one, got a good laugh from me. Years of practice and competition do, but a strong computer certainly helps for analysis and for making you feel bad when you thought you just played great. I'm just pointing out that a phone engine recommends those moves but a strong computer that hits higher depths doesn't, which has certain interesting implications about how the cheating might be occurring.
Principle-breaking openings like Caro-Kann aren't for you if you aren't both an advanced player and ready to study all of the sidelines (of which there are like 12) in-depth.
There are some sophisticated cheaters at ICC who appear to intentionally play inferior non-losing moves for say, the first 6 moves AND then turn on chess programs to finish off unsuspecting opponents. I think ICC is supposed to run background software that detects this.....

Okay, so he goes e5. Now a lot of people here would just lazily develop the knight to f3, but we actually have a move here that poses a lot of practical problems for black and is borderline winning for white. The move is Ke2, and do not worry I will explain this more thoroughly after the game. Now you might look at this position and say, 'isn't this weakening our king and blocking in our pieces?' And while that may be true, you guys need to start thinking long term. In the endgame, it will be a huge advantage to have our king activated in the center. Furthermore, black has no threats here, he is not going to checkmate us any time soon, the king is perfectly well defended on e2. Now he does have a nasty little defensive resource he can try here, let's see if he finds it. Wow, Ke7 he finds it. Now guys, I don't wanna hear any baseless accusations, we will check with an engine after the game. It's not unthinkable that a 1500 finds this move. No black has not equalized, we just need to play clinically to secure our advantage.

You're telling me anyone would ever blitz out Qb3 without considering or calculating any other moves in that position? With tons of time on the clock?

Ugh another dum dum comparing online random games where it's blatant to an otb game between grandmasters that was reasonable, at a high security event where it's impossible to use an engine. Shhhhhh little 600
You cheated not only the game, but yourself. You didn't grow. You didn't improve. You took a shortcut and gained nothing. You experienced a hollow victory. Nothing was risked and nothing was gained. It's sad that you don't know the difference.
@@afterglow5285 I don't understand that Hans Niemann accusations one bit. There is literally zero proof that he cheated at Saint Louis. Just some oddities in his post game analysis but that's hardly a compelling argument.
That is not when Danya calls him a cheater. That's about when Danya thinks he started cheating (after the game). And that gives no information. Danya could have been ahead in the past 5 moves, but you never told us how much better he was.
"M_arina716" is closed for fair play: Accuracy was ~95% against the lower rated players to gain rating quickly. At higher Elo, the cheater mixed non-top moves in to not get banned immediately. Still, it was a pitty attempt. Taking 5s for every move is totally human. Especially if You drop ridiculous queen maneuvers and tactics within seconds. Definitely not stockfish playing here.
Rbe1 was such a weird move lmfao, immediate give away for me. Moving the rook you already moved to b1 to e1 seemingly blocking in the other rook. A super goofy move only an 800 or a computer would play
8:46 "amazingly he's somehow holding on" How I know I will never be a GM. I would choose black here 100% of the time. Up a pawn and no immediately obvious positional weaknesses other than the pawn structure.
Hi Daniel I have really respected your approach to cheaters, ensuring that accusations are restrained until objective evidence is brought forth. Considering the whole Hans Niemann controversy, would you be interested in making a video that explains when and why you suspect cheating, and the consequences of falsely accusing someone of cheating?
There can never be 100% proof until a person is literally caught in toilet or something. Stronger players just know when somebody is cheating. When GMs cheat they are even better at hiding it. Han's supporters are just gullible noobs.
@@jibrankhalil4837 Sure but there are usually specific reasons, for example very consistent move times or crazy tactics, or that each of the moves they choose is consistent with engine suggestions, zero inaccuracies, stuff like that. In this case the cheating was blatant, but how could someone cheat more subtly?
It's very easy to recognize somebody who cheats manually. For simple moves they take just as long as for difficult ones avoiding or using advanced tactics. Just a disgrace for humanity or stinky robots created to follow stockfish's commands. On the other hand advanced cheaters that actually have a brain may take longer for the second type of moves if they try to figure out its motivation. But cheaters using their "brain"? Amusing concept.
It might as well be impossible to find those cheaters who are decent players and only use the engine during critical moments... this task is especially impossible if they are willing to lose games if they fumble the endgame in time pressure
This seems like an engine which is allowed to move pieces, every move they played took the same time each move. I think this is someone using their own engine? Because the moves that the opponent plays give danya the advantage, according to the fish
upon looking at the cheaters account, he was banned for cheating with only a record of 12 wins and 1 loss (his last game where he probably got banned). It was only two games after this one.
The real answer is actualy elementary. Magnus cheats. He's always had anal beads up his butt, maybe for the past 10 years. That's how he's been dominating the entire field of players. There was a slight dip during the time he played Caruana because he was so drunk he couldnt feel the vibrations well and ended up losinga game. His team decided to turn up the vibrations to max and that's how Magnus survived the encounter. Recently Magnus realized the anal bead supercomputer design he created had been stolen. Of course he couldn't come clean about cheating, so he drummed up the excuse of being bored so he wouldn't lose the World Championships to Nepo, who he suspects to have stolen the anal bead design after being humiliated in their prior contest. Magnus' suspicions were further evidenced by Nepo's performance during the Candidates. As u/GothamChess said, however, success is addictive, and Magnus decided to aim for 2900 before retiring for good. Little did he know, the real thief was the cocky supervillain Hans. Hans employed the anal bead tactic against Magnus. Being new to use the device, however, Hans didn't know that the signals he sent from his beads interfered with Magnus' device. Magnus feels unprompted vibrations on his prostate and realizes Hans stole his poopchute stockfish but couldn't use his own to retaliate lest Hans knew he was the true inventor of the device. That's why Magnus was uncharacteristically prone to inaccuracies and proceeded to lose the game. Afterwards, Magnus withdrew from the tournament, but not before putting out a vague tweet. While everyone interpreted it as Hans cheating, in reality, Magnus was also cheating but can't release definite proof since he'd also be in "big trouble". Case solved.
Don't get the whole banned thing unless you are actually a titled player that has to validate their identity and title. The guy will just create a new account in 60s flat and probably get his rocks off that he upset someone enough to report him. There has to be more of a penalty as bans do nothing in this particular situation. Yes a ban may mean something to someone like Hans Niemann but not for some random anonymous peep who gets a rise out of cheating others. Just my 2c.
Hey Danya, I love your videos! There needs to be a correction: your opponent is ‘statistically cheating’. Just saying, what happens if there’s a guy who’s actually really good, who doesn’t want to be in competitions, just play online; and it’s misjudged for a cheater? You said ‘unless he’s Magnus..’ , so there you go, if there’s one person who can play like that, why couldn’t there be another or many more? Several people have defeated Magnus btw. Thank you!
I wish people would stop rendering 60 FPS, the videos dont play smoothly on older hardware and its completely unnecessary most of the time. There is absolutely no need for more than 25-30 FPS on a chess video. Its increasing rendering time, upload time, and space on disk, its illogical on multiple levels.
Danya's opponent: 'Wow, this guy is much stronger than his 2100 rating. Must be a fellow cheater.'
Not even kidding, i was just thinking the same thing
It was kinda sus coz he moves his piece at a fast pace
fellow cheater, great!!
"Damn, I'm no cheater, but that guy must obviously be cheating, so let me fire up my engine..."
In a way, that's cheating by ommiting relevant information 😂
I love seeing Danya's squinting when it becomes clear the guy is playing like an engine. The double rook move was high level, but he moved his king like 3 times in a row in the middle game.
So when this guy moves his king 3 times in a row in the middle game he's a "cheater" and "high level", but when I do it I'm "400 elo" and "play f6".

Ugh another dum dum comparing online random games where it's blatant to an otb game between grandmasters that was reasonable, at a high security event where it's impossible to use an engine. Shhhhhh little 600
Cheaters cheat against themselves. They don't get better and learn nothing.
You cheated not only the game, but yourself. You didn't grow. You didn't improve. You took a shortcut and gained nothing. You experienced a hollow victory. Nothing was risked and nothing was gained. It's sad that you don't know the difference.
they can also become famous, trend on social networks, win against the world champion and win hefty prices at top tournaments.
@@afterglow5285 I don't understand that Hans Niemann accusations one bit. There is literally zero proof that he cheated at Saint Louis. Just some oddities in his post game analysis but that's hardly a compelling argument.
@@slowfreq Can you remind me where this is from? I can't remember
@@thesnackbandit I agree it's not ironclad, by any means...but it is compelling.
But at 11:07 when the guy plays bishop h3, the position is actually equal, exactly 0.0, and that's when danya starts calling him a teacher.
That is not when Danya calls him a cheater. That's about when Danya thinks he started cheating (after the game).
And that gives no information. Danya could have been ahead in the past 5 moves, but you never told us how much better he was.
14:00 u spend ur wjole life on chess then cheater can best u on 2 seconds
I meaaan this gotta hurrrt
These engines have nooo mercy of us humans 💔
"M_arina716" is closed for fair play:
Accuracy was ~95% against the lower rated players to gain rating quickly. At higher Elo, the cheater mixed non-top moves in to not get banned immediately. Still, it was a pitty attempt. Taking 5s for every move is totally human. Especially if You drop ridiculous queen maneuvers and tactics within seconds. Definitely not stockfish playing here.
Rbe1 was such a weird move lmfao, immediate give away for me. Moving the rook you already moved to b1 to e1 seemingly blocking in the other rook. A super goofy move only an 800 or a computer would play
11:36 Best part!
i see the title and its like watching a bee crawl into the spiders web but I still learn a lot
Hikaru be like: Is this Hans' secondary account?
was he using wireless anal beads?
This is why Hans gets no symphathy
8:46 "amazingly he's somehow holding on"
How I know I will never be a GM. I would choose black here 100% of the time. Up a pawn and no immediately obvious positional weaknesses other than the pawn structure.
Why black 100% of the time. White has a lot of play and imbalance going for him too. Very tricky to deal with.
Hi Daniel I have really respected your approach to cheaters, ensuring that accusations are restrained until objective evidence is brought forth.
Considering the whole Hans Niemann controversy, would you be interested in making a video that explains when and why you suspect cheating, and the consequences of falsely accusing someone of cheating?
This would be a good video
He discussed his thoughts on a twitch stream, you can prob find it on r/chess
There can never be 100% proof until a person is literally caught in toilet or something. Stronger players just know when somebody is cheating. When GMs cheat they are even better at hiding it. Han's supporters are just gullible noobs.
@@jibrankhalil4837 Sure but there are usually specific reasons, for example very consistent move times or crazy tactics, or that each of the moves they choose is consistent with engine suggestions, zero inaccuracies, stuff like that. In this case the cheating was blatant, but how could someone cheat more subtly?
Hans just getting some practice in before his game with Magnus
Very topical video!
Very topical Danya
Danya never fails to make my day better
The panov is my favorite attack against the caro ☺
I like accelerated panov!
Bruh, i gotta go to beddddd
That’s what you get for attempting to play the Magnus line!! Leave it to the pros Данюша 😊
I thought it was "oh my lans"
what's a lans?
@@KF1 Google is your friend
@@andrejbogdanov2816 not sure I care enough to check, but I will keep that in mind
It's very easy to recognize somebody who cheats manually. For simple moves they take just as long as for difficult ones avoiding or using advanced tactics. Just a disgrace for humanity or stinky robots created to follow stockfish's commands.
On the other hand advanced cheaters that actually have a brain may take longer for the second type of moves if they try to figure out its motivation. But cheaters using their "brain"? Amusing concept.
It might as well be impossible to find those cheaters who are decent players and only use the engine during critical moments... this task is especially impossible if they are willing to lose games if they fumble the endgame in time pressure
12:18 promote into night 😂
This seems like an engine which is allowed to move pieces, every move they played took the same time each move. I think this is someone using their own engine? Because the moves that the opponent plays give danya the advantage, according to the fish
upon looking at the cheaters account, he was banned for cheating with only a record of 12 wins and 1 loss (his last game where he probably got banned). It was only two games after this one.
The fact that he was cheating wasn't so obvious at first, but it became evident when he played Kh1 😂
sometimes i'll give myself time constraints per move to help me with time management. but yeah the guy's moves were too inhumanly consistent
More 15m vids, really help my slowbrain
I actually did suspect him after Rb1, I mean that came out like a prep.
How surprisingly topical!
This is pure entertainment ❤️
Cheetah!!!! Go Danyaaa
"you have no proof he's cheating! Innocent until proven guilty. This is a witch hunt!"
The real answer is actualy elementary. Magnus cheats. He's always had anal beads up his butt, maybe for the past 10 years. That's how he's been dominating the entire field of players. There was a slight dip during the time he played Caruana because he was so drunk he couldnt feel the vibrations well and ended up losinga game. His team decided to turn up the vibrations to max and that's how Magnus survived the encounter.
Recently Magnus realized the anal bead supercomputer design he created had been stolen. Of course he couldn't come clean about cheating, so he drummed up the excuse of being bored so he wouldn't lose the World Championships to Nepo, who he suspects to have stolen the anal bead design after being humiliated in their prior contest. Magnus' suspicions were further evidenced by Nepo's performance during the Candidates. As u/GothamChess said, however, success is addictive, and Magnus decided to aim for 2900 before retiring for good.
Little did he know, the real thief was the cocky supervillain Hans. Hans employed the anal bead tactic against Magnus. Being new to use the device, however, Hans didn't know that the signals he sent from his beads interfered with Magnus' device. Magnus feels unprompted vibrations on his prostate and realizes Hans stole his poopchute stockfish but couldn't use his own to retaliate lest Hans knew he was the true inventor of the device. That's why Magnus was uncharacteristically prone to inaccuracies and proceeded to lose the game.
Afterwards, Magnus withdrew from the tournament, but not before putting out a vague tweet. While everyone interpreted it as Hans cheating, in reality, Magnus was also cheating but can't release definite proof since he'd also be in "big trouble".
Case solved.
That's a bummer. Cheaters really make me sick.
Grats on your back to back Daniel
In lieu of the Hans / Magnus drama ... this is very much very appropriate.
Don't let them get you down
funny accident, Dania faces a cheater shortly after the Hans situation
I think you meant to say “shortly after Magnus did”
Would have loved to know how danya found that tactic at the end :(
Don't get the whole banned thing unless you are actually a titled player that has to validate their identity and title. The guy will just create a new account in 60s flat and probably get his rocks off that he upset someone enough to report him. There has to be more of a penalty as bans do nothing in this particular situation. Yes a ban may mean something to someone like Hans Niemann but not for some random anonymous peep who gets a rise out of cheating others. Just my 2c.
Valid point. But what else can really be done? It's the sad reality of it.
You forget to floss ?? 😆😅🤣😂
NOOO
thanks
Chess speaks for itself.
(teasing) 😂
This is probably Hans with his new account
Very topical
Hey Danya, I love your videos! There needs to be a correction: your opponent is ‘statistically cheating’. Just saying, what happens if there’s a guy who’s actually really good, who doesn’t want to be in competitions, just play online; and it’s misjudged for a cheater? You said ‘unless he’s Magnus..’ , so there you go, if there’s one person who can play like that, why couldn’t there be another or many more? Several people have defeated Magnus btw. Thank you!
I wish people would stop rendering 60 FPS, the videos dont play smoothly on older hardware and its completely unnecessary most of the time. There is absolutely no need for more than 25-30 FPS on a chess video. Its increasing rendering time, upload time, and space on disk, its illogical on multiple levels.
Hikaru confirmed that this is Hans alt account
didnt know hans had an alt account in the 2200s
might be you have to only play titled players to keep the speed run going up here.
Do you think hans thinks hans can beat Magnus with black
Timely video
