The Anonymous GM Phoenix

Avatar of bjohn1234

I suppose many of you (Including me) have been wondering who GM Phoenix is. GeorgeBlackChess123 (I don`t know if you know him) testifies that he knows him but GM Phoenix told him not to tell anyone! There have been lots of forum discussions about this case, and this forum is one of them! GM Phoenix as we see, is a Super GM! Super GM could be out of top 10 players! Magnus Carlsen, Hikaru, Aronian, etc.

Now, Time to Calculate with our brains:

Hikaru Nakamura, opens an account and knows everything, even pre-moves! It is interesting!

Hikaru Nakamura reaches the same rating as Phoenix and vanishes quickly! Conclusion... Hikaru is playing in Tata Steel Masters and he is busy to log in chess.com! We understand that! But the most interesting thing is that Phoenix vanishes the day Hikaru opens an account! And Neither Phoenix or Hikaru logs in during Tata Steel Masters Tournament! Conclusion.... Phoenix is one of the GMs playing in Tata Steel Masters Tourney! There are not so many and few Super GMs! 

I don`t know what You guys think but I made a conclusion that there is a 75% chance that Phoenix is Nakamura! 

Write the Comments Below and Let me Know what you think! Take care!

Best regards,

JOHN!

I'm pretty sure that Phoenix is Nakamura, but not for the reasons given here.

Well, both ICC and Playchess have premoves and of course a known player from both of those sites would know about premove and autoqueen and turn those features on.  Also, the 'ratings' may be the same, but GM Hikaru has much better time management than GM Phoenix, much better tactics, and has pulled of some swindles that Phoenix wasn't able to execute.  I really doubt Phoenix is Naka.  There are a lot of very strong chess grandmasters out there (just mostly not on this site).

Nice theory Volcano, very nice theory! Well of course there might be many gms out there that aren't on this site! But here's the thing volcano: GM Phoenix is a super gm, and super gms are few, super gms are one of top ten titled players!

Actually, Super GMs are GM's with a rating over 2700 FIDE... there are around 50 of them. And, out of curiosity, what makes you so certain that GM Phoenix is a Super GM?

One other point in favor of Phoenix being Nakamura is the home town listed of Vancouver. For a while Nakamura was absolutely smitten with Vancouver and even considered moving there full-time.

super firebrandx, nice brainwork!

The tata steel ended, now we are waiting for Caruana and Nakamura to return to chess.com!

Well if it was Nakamura, that's a pretty good argument for not playing on chess.com given his Tata Steel performance.

I agree with this exactly. Look at how GM Hammer and GM Andreikin played when they openned their accounts. Both are strong GMs and both had for a while a better rank than phoenix. Just because he is strong at blitz doesn't make him Naka.

that`s not the argument! I`m not saying Nakaura is phoenix because of blitz! Read the reasons why I think Nakamura is Phoenix!

It isn't Naka, he has another account already.
