 | | Gypsy: <there is no other way to win the "tour de pharma"> One sports MD explained the effect of EPO (or of classical blood doping) thus: Give me a clean skier -- this lecture was in the context of nordic skiing -- that regularly finishes 60+. And, with EPO, I will put him on the podium. |

 | | maturner: Seems likely he was cheating because of the big difference between bis classical rating and his blitz and rapid rating. |

 | | MissScarlett: <Mr Rausis confessed to cheating on four different occasions, in three instances by using his mobile phone and in the other instance by pre-arranging the result of a game, and was found guilty as such on the basis of his own version. Taking into account Mr Rausis’ acknowledgment of guilt, his co-operation at the hearing and remorse displayed, as well as his personal circumstances, but keeping in mind the precedent established by the ETH’s decision in case no. 7/2015, the ETH unanimously decided to sanction Mr. Igor Rausis with a worldwide ban of 6 (six) years to take effect from 31 July 2019 and to end on 30 July 2025. During this period Mr. Rausis is prohibited from participating as a player in any FIDE rated over-the-board chess competition (whether classical, rapid, blitz or Fischer-random chess), and from any chess-related activity as an arbiter, organizer or representative of a chess federation. In addition, Mr. Rausis’ grandmaster title is revoked effective from the date of publishing this decision.> https://fide.com/news/246 |

|
| Dec-06-19 | | Carrots and Pizza: He shouldn’t be stripped of his GM title. He earned it a long time ago. |

| | MissScarlett: <back in 1992, when even I could give any computer a piece odds and win the game without much troubles.> 1982, maybe.
<He shouldn’t be stripped of his GM title.> Is Rausis the first to have a FIDE title rescinded for cheating? No doubt FIDE would resist suggestions that they revoke titles for non-chess related crimes or misdemeanours. |

| Dec-07-19 | | jith1207: He's clearly a Russian Spy, doing his part time job in between games. Proof?
Rausis is an Anagram for Russia. ;)
I hope the other job continues to provide the major share of financial support for him. |

| Dec-07-19 | | jith1207: I'm sure the FIDE has a separate folder archive of photos of various chess players attending to their nature calls in bathroom stalls during tournament games. If you're one of those guys who like to pee in the stall, while having your head tilted towards the ceiling with closed eyes, your photos might've even captured funnier facial expressions. Not to worry, FIDE must only do so if your rating has increased abnormally. Hopefully. |

| Dec-07-19 | | Caissanist: Sadly, this is going to kill classical tournament chess. Virtually the only open tournaments 20 years from now will be rapid and blitz where you are not allowed to leave the board. |

|
| Apr-07-21 | | Nosnibor: Why have this cheat as player of the day? Why not Wilhelm Schoenmann who has never been mentioned but holds a reasonable record? |
|

| | MissScarlett: This guy is the worst type of cheater. He got caught. |
|
| Apr-07-21 | | Nosnibor: "In the room there`s a cheat to be seen." "Playing a game with a King and a Queen" "So I took a little picture of you." "On my camera you are in full view." ( "A Picture of You." Joe Brown 1962 ) |
|
| Apr-07-21 | | I like ya cut g: Oh this cheater. |

 | | Check It Out: I find these cheater stories fascinating. This is a problem chess tournaments need to continuously address. As devices get smaller and more sophisticated, cheating will be harder to observe. I'm going to get an implant; see you in November, Carlsen!! |

|
| Apr-11-21 | | Nosnibor: <macer75> He lost his right to a "Legendary " status through his @%$£ing cheating! Get over it. |
|
| Apr-11-21 | | macer75: <Nosnibor: <macer75> He lost his right to a "Legendary " status through his @%$£ing cheating! Get over it.> On the contrary, he acquired his legendary status through his @%$£ing "cheating," as you call it. Sure, it would have been more legendary if he had broken 2700 before he was caught, but alas, things don't always go our way. I'd love to see someone one-up him in the future, but until that happens he is the legend par excellence of so-called "cheaters." |
