#chess #tcec #siliconroad A nice demo of how NNs (various technologies) have increased the strength of engines. Leela and current Stockfish took on the last Stockfish version to feature a hand-crafted evaluation (not self-learnt as now) in 5-min blitz from the starting position. tcec-chess.com

#reengineeringtheclassics #siliconroad #chess #tcec A quick look at a really instructive moment from the ongoing Season 28 SuperFinal between Stockfish and Leela https://matthewsadler.me.uk/engine-chess/whole-board-play/

#siliconroad #chess #reengineeringtheclassics #tcec Breaking into the ongoing series on the Colle-Zukertort, a look at a very interesting moment during game 8 of the ongoing TCEC SuperFinal between Stockfish and Leela. All about small details, general assessments and peering into the future! https://matthewsadler.me.uk/attack/the-smallest-details/

#chess #tcec #reengineeringtheclassics #siliconroad Secondly, a lovely fortress spot by Leela! Stockfish set up the Nf5 tactic with a g3 pawn sac, but Leela took it correctly assessing that the resulting endings led to a rook vs queen fortress! Really impressive at such a distance!

#tcec #siliconroad #reengineeringtheclassics #chess A couple of nice moments from the ongoing TCEC Superfinal https://tcec-chess.com Firstly, a Fischer-Petrosian moment when Leela played Nxe7 in this position!

#chess #reengineeringtheclassics #siliconroad #tcec I tune into the TCEC and Leela is already 3.5-1.5 down 🥺🥺🥺🥺

#chess #siliconroad #reengineeringtheclassics #tcec Ah 9.Nxc6, we Sicilian players always saw it as a beginner’s move, strengthening Black’s centre and giving him the b-file for counterplay. Lost count of the number of times I’ve explained this “mistake” to people 🥺Turns out it’s White’s best approach 😊

#chess #tcec #siliconroad #reengineeringtheclassics Watching Leela play with knight odds against all comers. It’s seriously impressive. Leela currently has a score of 121.5-1.5 against an IM rated 2525! Watch for yourselves! https://lichess.org/@/LeelaKnightOdds-dev/tv

#chess #tcec Apparently he was muttering something about Leela and a cup but nobody knew what he meant 🧐🧐🧐🧐

#chess #siliconroad #tcec #reengineeringtheclassics Some Basman-style openings at the TCEC! …Nh6 in the Leningrad was a favourite of the younger and *slightly* less crazy English player! Stockfish suffering to hold atm though!

#reengineeringtheclassics #siliconroad #chess #tcec If I’ve told you once, I’ve told you twice: don’t triple your g-pawns! Leela holds a draw 3 pawns down! https://tcec-chess.com/#div=sw&game=351&season=27

#tcec #siliconroad #chess Silly engine 🤨 It’s the *black* queen that goes to h7 in the French 🧐 https://tcec-chess.com/

#chess #reengineeringtheclassics #siliconroad #tcec At the TCEC, Halogen and Booot fighting out an opening line exit from the Blumenfeld Gambit that I once had in a simultaneous display against @stephenfry at the Docklands in 1988 😊 (I was White) https://tcec-chess.com/

#tcec #chess #siliconroad I open the TCEC for the first time in months and mrbdzz is involved in a furious discussion with accusations of *yoinking* flying around left, right and centre 😮😮😮

#chess #siliconroad #tcec Yep, a4-a5 in King's Indian structures! Never seen it quite that quick!

#siliconroad #reengineeringtheclassics #chess #tcec Well Stockfish thought it had escaped… but it’s been caught in a trap! 😮😮 tcec-chess.com

#chess #reengineeringtheclassics #siliconroad #tcec How should Garry have defended it? Let Leela and Stockfish show you! tcec-chess.com And this shows you how Garry played it against Deep Blue! Deep Blue rediscovered! 1997 Match against Garry Kasparov - Game 6: Total Disaster!
