https://www.chess.com/game/live/166854980940 The opponent's account is closed for fairplay. I haven't received the 13 pts yet I lost against him. When will I receive that? No notif from chess.com, nothing. Also, the account closed ryt after he checkmated me and after I reported him.

It's possible they were closed for games in a different rating pool.

But the most recent game was against me. He was playing Bullet. Even if he had been closed for probably blitz cheating, points would certainly be refunded. It's mentioned in the article Martin.

EDIT: I notice another cheater banned within 20 recent games. Supposed to receive 8 + 7 = 15 more points in the course of 2 matches with him.

If an account is closed for Blitz and there wasn't any issue with Bullet (or it was unclear), the latter would not be refunded.

I didn't know such a rule existed like that! I thought it refunded points for all formats' games played for recent (within 100 games) opponents when they got banned. Was it a new rule?

I don't think it's new.
