Apparently an Indian chess player in New Delhi has been banned from competitive chess playing for ten years. He was using a wireless device to cheat in his matches. He had a bluetooth device stitched into his hat and would get chess moves relayed to him from friends who used a computer! Give him credit for creativity. But cheating at chess? How wrong is that?

Wow! That is news to me. I didn't think it was possible to cheat at Chess, I mean I thought Chess was unpredicatble, right?

Apparently not. They were using some chess program that mapped out moves that were unbeatable. The cheating went on for 18 months!
