Uhhhmmm, I don’t want to be intrusive, but how exactly does one use small beads to cheat at chess? I’m trying to figure this out, …but I keep losing anyway.

Imagine Nieman's surprise once he discovered you were only supposed to put it on your ankle

Yeah. The whole comment section seems like it's super obvious... but seriously... how does one cheat with anal vibrators?

It's important to remember that he is certainly still very good at chess, even if he cheated in some games. He wouldn't need to have every move given to him, it might even be enough to give him a single signal that there is a non-obvious great move in a current position. Even just knowing that would probably be enough for him to find it by himself.
