  alexmagnus: He is sandbagging on playchess (played down his rating from 2800 to 2050 to win ducats). A normal user would have his account deleted if he did so but a GM seems to be secure from punishment...
Jun-21-07   square dance: why would he have to sandbag in order to win ducats?
Jun-21-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  alexmagnus: Becuase with a rating like 1978 (his current rating) he has big chances to get an opponent for a ducat game. If people with rating around 2000 don't know him and overlook his GM title, they take his ducat game offer and lose most of the games (but not all - he holds his rating low...)
Jun-21-07   square dance: has he been playing any ducat games? are you sure its not just his kid playing on his account or something?
Jun-21-07
Premium Chessgames Member
  alexmagnus: He plays for ducats quite frequently... I don't know if these games are ducat games (for some reason i can't see "ducats" in the noatation whiloe ducat games) but considering he plays for ducats quite often... I myself once drew him (in a ducat game, my rating during that game was 1449).
Jun-21-07   square dance: yeah, i wouldnt doubt if lets someone else play on his account. if it was a 3min game i cant see a 1450 drawing an IM, or GM. no offense.

  alexmagnus: I can post the game if you want. 3 minutes. I was winning it (sic!) but in time trouble took the first draw possibility (he started checking me and i decided to run into perpetual though i could avoid it). Either someone else played for him (but why for ducats?) or he is sandbagging...

  whiteshark: Sergey Kasparov was born 8th of August, 1968 in Baku Azerbaijan (Yes, really - right there Garry comes from!) and is best known for his famous chess name of his compatriot Garry Kasparov. Sergey is now playing for Belarus and he is married to WIM Tatiana Kasparova. In 2006 he set a record streak of over 60 games without a single loss after winning the BDO Tournament in Haarlem. He then reached an elopeak of 2546. He received his GM-title in 2007.

Among Sergey Kasparov many tournament victories are both Prague and Fridek-Mistek tournaments in the Czech Republic, Kolobrzeg Open in Poland, Weizz in Austria, Gabchikovo 2002, San Sebastian 2006, BDO in Haarlem 2006, Gotenborg 2006, Erandio 2007 and Ybbs 2008. Sergey usually opens the game with 1.e4 which suits his aggressive style. As black he plays stuff as the Caro-Kann, Benko Gambit and the Modern Benoni.

  timhortons: Quebec chess championship 2009 controversy:

<Kasparov-Georgiev case>

GM Vladimir Georgiev won the Open section with 6.5/9!

http://www.fqechecs.qc.ca/index.php...

google toolbar translation

S. Case Kasparov-Georgiev
During the last round of the Open Championships in Quebec in 2009, one of the leading parties has aroused many suspicions. The part played between Sergey Kasparov and Vladimir Georgiev decided to first place and consequently the first prize of $ 5000.Some players have argued that the party was "arranged" arguing that whites had voluntarily lost, although no complaint was formally filed.Management has still retained the winner's check (post dated) time to conduct an internal investigation. Players (Kasparov-Sambuev) in the center of the dispute were encountered as well as Bator Sambuev, an actor close to the situation. Other witnesses also.Evidence of cheating is difficult to substantiate, but suspicions remain strong enough, because of the following:1) Both players were absent from the scene simultaneously from 5 to 10 minutes according to various witnesses;2) No witness who came forward has seen the two players discussed together;3) The game is a little strange from time Txd7? including (but not completely cut off from reality. This kind of error was in the same tournament).After consultation with the regulations, it appears that the referees have the final word on the prize (to avoid any appearance of conflict).Two referees were in favor of a penalty but the referee in chief, who has the final say, decided that the evidence was insufficient to do so.The fact remains that both players may not be invited back to COQ. The dispute will also be mentioned in the report of the FIDE tournament. Fédération québécoise des échecs11-08-2009

  timhortons: GM sergey kasparov was accused of throwing in the his last round game against GM Vladimir Georgiev.

Georgiev won the Open section with 6.5/9!

Russian GM sambuev if im not mistaken raised the issue against sergey kasparov.

i upload this controversial game in our databse, its up to the admin if he include it or not in the databse, the round 9 of quebec chess championship was relayed at playchess.com and i got copy of the games.

GM sambuev most often come late in his games, and this guy smoke but i seen him askin the arbiter to go with him if he smoke outside the tourney hall. mark bluvstien come on time and is always poker faced. naka scowl and paced in a hallway as if in a bad mood before a game.id seen sergey kasparov roam around the tourney hall most often.

just like any cheating accusation its just hard to prove this one.

for once i think its sambuev who gonna win this tourney, i dont have the final standing report of the competetion but the final game i think is between sambuev and giorgiev.

  timhortons: i chatted with IM castellanos at icc and he told me the money was eventually given to the winner of quebec chess championship 2009, as how can you prove such accusation that sergey kasparov tossed his last game with georgiev?

here check out GM Avrukh blog and his crying foul, over alledged pre arranged game zurich-jubilee-2009.

http://avrukhboris.wordpress.com/20...

Nov-16-09   funnychess: Look at the table of the tournament. http://www.monroi.com/chess-tournam... Sambuev is a loser and no more. He lost several last games and is looking for somebody to blame for.. Sergey was leading all the tournament in Monreal-blitz and lost last game too, I know it, I saw it. why nobody speak about it?? Why aren’t you indignant in it? Or look, he played in Hoogeven open: http://www.univechess.nl/2009/index... In last round Sergey made draw, except his game almost all the others of leaders were productive. Why nobody has questions?? So it is full delirium, Sergey’d better bring an action in court on Sambuev, it seems, nobody besides him thinks like this..
