Unusual Method Of Cheating At Chess ☺☺
I read and reread this story and there are gaps in my understanding of how this plan worked.
I, initially, thought that he played better chess because he was in a good mood from all the endorphins and other hormones but I suspect that a third party may have been involved. I wonder if there is any proof that the guy cheated.

It's from the Daily Star so there is also the possibility that it is all a made-up story.

>>> Emoji in the title
>>> When did that start to work?
A smiley face is a character in most fonts, just as letters and numbers are, Gromit. On a Windows computer with a numeric keypad (but not using the numbers across the top of the keyboard), all one has to do to use them is to keep the Alt key pressed down while typing the relevant 'Alt code' for the required symbol:

Otherwise one can use the Windows Character Map, which is accessed via Start > Windows Accessories. (On an Android or iOS device, there are ways of typing special characters too).
So AB's server sees a smiley face as no different to a letter or a number. It's simply another character.
