The world of chess has been rocked after a Russian chess champion attempted to poison her childhood rival by covering her pieces in deadly mercury.
Now facing a possible prison sentence, Amina Abakarova, 43, was caught on a security camera smearing her rival’s pieces with the substance ahead of a tournament in Makhachkala, southern Russia last week.
According to the World Health Organisation, even minor exposure to mercury can have serious health consequences.
Man chess competitions are wild. First was the sex toy cheating scandal and now this.
googles “chess sex toy cheating”
That episode of It’s Always Sunny In Philadelphia was based on a real event??
So there was a claim he was cheating but it’s really hard to smuggle any devices into the match so it was JOKED that he used a sex toy, but thats only one theory lol
Lol, ya that’s how I first heard about it. I love it’s always sunny.
