I do not believe it. How is it possible to play blindfold without having a picture of the board in your head? How is it possible to see that the queen is under threat by a bishop without seeing fast the squares that the bishop control. In games with board there is no problem because I can see that the bishop threat the queen in one second but without a board I do not see the squares in the same diagnol as the bishop(I may calculate them but without a picture it will take me many seconds to see that the bishop threats the queen even if I remember the squares of the bishop and the queen).
