Yan Chenglong, a champion of Chinese Chess, has been stripped of his title following allegations of cheating and (possibly) even defecating in a hotel bathtub

The Chinese Xiangqi Association announced that 48-year-old Chenglong will have his title of ‘Xiangqi King’ revoked for cheating and “extremely bad character.” This comes after allegations that he not only cut corners to win but that he got intoxicated and showed bad judgment during the event.

According to an official statement, this apparent gangster of chess partied it up at his hotel, resulting in Yan Chenglong leaving his own, special brand of bishop in the bathtub.

“Yan consumed alcohol with others in his room on the night of the 17th, and then he defecated in the bathtub of the room he was staying in on the 18th, in an act that damaged hotel property, violated public order and good morals, had a negative impact on the competition and the event of Xiangqi, and was of extremely bad character,” the CXA said in a statement.

That wasn’t all, though. The governing body claims that the champion, Yan Chenglong, cheated in winning… by doing so anally.

That’s not to say he had a queen in his crack… or a bishop up his butt, for that matter. Instead, the CXA claims that the player had anal beads inside of him – and that they fired off vibrations and impulses to cue him on moves. The rumor was investigated after it spread across the Chinese social media site Weibo, according to the New York Post.

No idea what Yan Chenglong’s next move will be from here. But one thing’s for sure, he’ll probably never try to rook another opponent again. Or confuse a bathtub with a toilet, for that matter.
