Subject: Cheating in playchess

Meir paz claims in the israeli chess forum(for people who read hebrew see
http://www.chess-il.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=862&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0)
that he has a method to play very well in the internet without the help of a
computer.

For people who ask to play him in regular board he claims that the method does
not work on a regular board.

He claims that nobody found his method including the people who are responsible
in playchess and that the method is developed and he hopes to get with it rating
of 2850.

In the last tournament (yesterday 5+0 in room B) Meir paz scored 7/9 but I
noticed that in 2 games that he lost he did not play well and did stupid
mistakes.

I said that it seems that the source that gives the moves to Meir paz stopped to
work.

Meir paz admitted that there was a bug in the method and said that he is going
to work on fixing it.

He said that the method stopped to work in the middle of the tournament and he
had to continue by himself but fortunately won the last 2 games by himself.

Note that Meir paz was a player with rating near 1800 in blitz before using his
method but got rating above 2300.

Note that Meir Paz in another thread did not deny a claim of another poster that
he found a bug in the program of playchess.

I guess that another human simply plays for him(maybe Meir paz even caused him
by some way to believe that he plays against another player so maybe the human
is not quilty).
What is your opinion?
