Chess Cheating Saga Ends: Hans Niemann Will Be Allowed Back on Chess.com
- isaacfrond 3y agoOk, so now Magnus says: As part of the settlement, chess world champion Carlsen said “there is no determinative evidence that Niemann cheated in his game against me at the Sinquefield Cup. I am willing to play Niemann in future events, should we be paired together.” But wait, didn't we have countless commenters explaining how Niemann cheated (also on HN). I really don't like how Magnus tarnished his reputation so casually, probably as the result of an unexpected loss to him.
