Do you think Magnus Carlsen is right to insinuate that Niemann cheated against him at the St-Louis chess event?
I find the accusation very unprofessional from the chess champion.

@Longpatrol I was thinking the same thing this morning. His legacy is getting tarnished! He was expecting the guy to lose just because he Carlsen made a good preparation!? Guess what!? Niemann was also prepared!!
All this tells me that at the 2600+ level there’s really no difference between players in the middle and end game.
Carlsen’s opening didn’t give him an edge, if he was that extraterrestrial being he thinks he is, he should have won the middle and end game regardless. But reality was different. He’s human after all.
