Chess Grandmaster Hans Niemann Accused Of Using Vibrating Anal Beads To Beat World Number 1 Magnus Carlsen

How’s that for a headline?

The Chess world was rocked last week when No. 1 ranked chess player Magnus Carlsen suffered a shocking loss to Hans Niemann at the Sinquefield Cup, ending his 53-game winning streak. Following the upset loss, Carlsen announced that he was withdrawing from the tournament and tweeted out this tweet video of soccer manager Jose Mourinho

I've withdrawn from the tournament. I've always enjoyed playing in the @STLChessClub, and hope to be back in the future https://t.co/YFSpl8er3u

There are allegations stating that Niemann used “wireless vibrating anal beads” to signal winning moves.

Niemann denied the use of any performance enhancing anal beads.

“I don’t care. Because I know I am clean. You want me to play in a closed box with zero electronic transmission, I don’t care.

“I’m here to win and that is my goal regardless.”

According to the Guardian, Niemann has been banned from Chess.com and has been uninvited from the Global Championship.

What a crappy thing to get accused of.
