> Because of this accusation, his career is pretty much over. That was the conventional wisdom 3 weeks ago, when chess.com unleashed their report and things looked pretty bad for Hans. But he performed respectably at the US championship over the past ~2 weeks (4 wins, 3 losses, 6 draws). He was entertainingly arrogant in interviews (I consider this a plus) and seemed to spontaneously conjure chaos (see the king decapitation near the end of the US championship). If he continues like this (and if security measures are improved), he will be one of the (let's say) top-25 players and also one of the most entertaining. I don't think we can pronounce the fate of his career yet. He's also only 19 years old.
