Thinkabit

Anyone have an idea of who thinkabit might be? I doubt he cheats because he beat the best engine.
P.S. If you are thinkabit and want to keep yourself private, I understand
It's best not to know. He (or she) could be anybody as long as you don't know. Maybe he was raised in a community of Super Grandmasters as a child and he always beats them in simultaneous blindfold games. Maybe he's the human chess master that's hiding inside Turks like Stockfish and Houdini.
why cheat ?if u see his profile he start at2000rate but he improve fast for good iQ
its so simple,play few game with engine vs him ,if he win then he is engine.simple
He's that character from the Matrix.
Yeah, totally. I just watched that movie two days ago
One thing is clear, he is a player that thinks a bit. Imagine some bullet matches vs Nakamura.
He plays mostly 1-3 minute games, you can't cheat in those, neither Stockfish can calculate the absolute best move that fast.
It's possible to cheat in 1+0, but you should be a master of that deal. You take a very powerfull computer: 32 Gb RAM, strong CPU's. Take a programm, that scans chessboard and manage your mouse. Take Houdini or something else. Then you turn on this program and you have a key, that give you a choice - play by yourself or engine will play. You create a game. Play some opening. Then press this key and computer makes moves. Also you have 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 keys. That's the keys of engine's lines. You can choose some of them. Then you press the key again and play by yourself. It's possible. But I think he is not a cheater.
1. I saw games of IM's in 3+0 and they generally don't do mistakes.
2. You need to be a fanatic to play with this program for a lot of time and hide your real power of playing.
3. But all may be. It's possible, that he also has another account with another IP and plays among us.
He is a retired ukranian international master, that is all I know.
