Niemann, a grandmaster, is slated to compete in the U.S. Chess Championships tournament that began Wednesday in St. Louis.
Despite the website's damning report, Niemann should still be allowed to play in the in-person U.S. Chess Championships, says Ken Regan, an authority on cheating in chess who is a professor of computer science and engineering at the University at Buffalo.
The Chess.com report cites Regan as an independent expert, saying he agrees with its conclusions that Niemann cheated in multiple cash-prize online events in 2015 and 2017, and also in"numerous matches against other professional players in 2020." Other than when he was 12, Niemann said, he had never cheated in a tournament with prize money. It was"the worst thing that I could ever do," he said.The report clashes with Niemann's statements
Chess.com says its anti-cheating technology found numerous problems when it conducted a deep review of Niemann's career. It says its system can"detect patterns of influence from engines that amount to a certainty that we can stand behind."
