I thought that if you make an illegal move, then you are punished with two minutes on the clock.

@glaurung78 Sh did not make an ilegal move. Arbiter was wrong

[Kasuh3]

The arbiter was trying to convince them to go make him a ham sandwich

[Blirith]

That fkn arbiter needs shot.

Блять где шахматы !! че это такое ? Ужас я говорю ужас. Идиотские правила и дурная соперница.

This is awful, poor player, she wins and the opponent cheated, it happens so often i can't stand this mentality.

what even happened?

@janweltevreden Sounds like a stupid rule if it is a rule. When players play blitz pieces are all over the place.

@a015537 I have to disagree. One match, of any type, does not a career make. It certainly doesn't ruin one (unless it causes physical impairment - unlikely in chess). If she's good enough to be a top level player, she'll be back. It may be frustrating, but it defintely should not "ruin her career" - assuming she had one to begin with.

@MADMAC572

Sorry, you are soooooooooooo wrong on this one. you HAVE to fight tooth and nail in any professional sport for yourself. Especially in chess, being a mental sport, psychology is everything. You don't understand the stress it puts on a person when you can't just vent your frustrations by punching the other person harder. In chess, that kind of adrenaline rush is 99% of the time fatal.

Does her actions gives any advantages ?

@zooMZooMlikeATyphOOn did you watch the Mathysee - Judah fight? Mathysee should have won that fight. Bad decision. But guess what, he's still fighting and getting lots of good fights and another world championship opportunity. This is a chess match. If the girl is really good, she'll have LOTS of other opportunities. Just like Mathysee did (and does). It's a chess game. She doesn't even have to deal with someone punching her in the head for her trouble.

@MADMAC572 this is the world championships. its not a random chess event. and in order to have a good showing at the world championships you can't have losses. it's a pretty huge deal.

[MADMAC572]

@zooMZooMlikeATyphOOn It's one game. That's all. It's not that big a deal. It's a game. Let's keep some perspective. If the outcome of one lousy game is the difference between having a career and not... that says something about competetive chess. And it's not something good.

[MADMAC572]

@lopytube It's your perversion. Not to be unkind... but I would not go there personally.
