"I compared today the game of surprise win of Chinese kid ( 14 years old ) against Alexei Shirov, from some moves upwards the kid played all the first line houddini ( 10 moves in a row ). Very suspect, from opening it was nothing special three pawns for a piece but then some subtle moves like Kb1 in order to give a check with the bishop on c1, I mean this just reminded me on Coris play against me in Benasque during the final stage of the game ( endgame ). Very suspicious indeed."
The real analysis is that kids prepare with Houdini, and the kid got in a good preparation. Plus older GMs have to accept the change in style of modern players, rather than be bitter about it. I would advise the next opponent to change his openings though
Hell yeah, he has a transparent lens in his eye and an implanted microspeaker in his auditory canal. A seperate satellite is assigned for the transmision of houdini moves, to ensure his dominance in the tournament and later his vicotry over the world champion! Then those capitalistic westerners have to accept the mental superiority of the citizens of the People's Republic of China !!
A 14 year old beating Alexi Shirov is incredible. I thought Shirov stole the first game by getting a draw. To see that Shirov still lost is unbelievable. I hope this kid wins the tournament now.
