Hans Niemann 'likely cheated' in more than 100 games, investigation finds- PublishedA chess player at the centre of a cheating row gripping the game "likely" cheated in more than 100 games online, according to an investigation.The Norwegian made veiled accusations of cheating against Niemann at the time before openly accusing him last week.The site, which has banned Niemann for alleged cheating, claims it is likely he cheated as recently as 2020, including in prize money events and against highly-rated "well known" figures in the game.In his statement last week, Carlsen suggested Niemann had cheated in their game at the Sinquefield Cup in the US state of Missouri, saying he "wasn't tense or even fully concentrating" while outplaying him using the black pieces "in a way I think only a handful of players can do".A statistical analysis of Niemann's over-the-board games by Prof Kenneth Regan, widely regarded as the world's leading expert on cheating in chess, found no evidence he had cheated."
