GM Caught Cheating in Tourn With Hidden Cellphone in Bathroom
I told my wife that a husband is like a fine wine; he gets better with age. The next day, she locked me in the cellar.

A quote from the 2006 World Chess Championship:
"After each move Mr. Kramnik immediately heads to the rest room and from it directly to the bathroom. During every game he visited the relaxation room 25 times at the average and the bathroom more than 50 times - the bathroom is the only place without video surveillance."

Start with Chapter 5 , he replied he drinks a lot water during a game and he liked to walk in the bathroom ....everyone can draw his own conclusions, but clearly, this is along the lines of "If it looks like a duck, swims like a duck, and quacks like a duck, then it probably is a duck..."

But then how was he caught?
Your beliefs create your reality, so be careful what you wish for.
