As with all sports, the desire to win can cloud the judgement of players and sometimes encourage them to take shortcuts or utilise underhand tactics to gain an advantage. It's the same story with chess, with plenty of ingenious ways discovered when it comes to getting an advantage.

Susan Polgar is an outstanding chessplayer. She is playing chess since she was four and become the first woman to be a Grandmaster in chess history. However, she was not the most successful of the Polgar's. The great achievement of the sisters was thanks to their father's experiment. Women winning in chess at these levels were more than rare. She was born into a block of flats in Budapest. Their financial situation wasn't pretty well at the time. Her father was a pedagogue and he had an idea to make a so-called experiment. His main thesis was that geniuses are not accidentally born, but they are made. He said that people are specialized in a certain direction from a very early age they can achieve outstanding results.
