Chess Champ Accused Of Cheating With Help Of Vibrating Sex Toy In His Ass Gets Scanned Before Tournament
Via TheGuardian:
The embattled American grandmaster Hans Niemann struck a defiant pose on Wednesday in his first public appearance since an investigation found that he had cheated in more than 100 online games, far more frequently than he had previously disclosed.
Shortly after defeating 15-year-old Christopher Yoo with the unfavored black pieces in the opening round of the US Chess Championship, Niemann spoke for less than a minute in a terse post-game interview and insisted he is “not going to back down” amid the allegations of foul play that have threatened to permanently stain an ascendent career that until last month was bursting with promise.
A blockbuster 72-page report conducted by Chess.com and made public on Tuesday concluded that Niemann “likely received illegal assistance in more than 100 online games” as recently as 2020, including in events where prize money was at stake.
The investigation made no conclusions regarding Niemann’s over-the-board games. But it did flag contests from six of his stronger in-person events, stating they “merit further investigation based on the data”, while questioning his “statistically extraordinary” climb up the Fide ratings.
So, they know he cheats when he plays online, but because they have no proof of him cheating during in-person games, they let him play? If I were one of the other people in the tournament, I’d boycott the whole thing, which sounds like a total sham. Plus, he seems like a total asshole, and he literally looks, sounds, and acts like the exact kind of person who would cheat:

The thought of him cheating thanks to a remote control vibrating sex toy in his ass (the backstory on that is here) is insane, and I expect a Men.com parody of it before the end of the year. Meanwhile, here was Niemann getting his ass scanned before joining the competition yesterday:
