Rybka 4Beta is playing!

[Edward German]

Thanks Eduard.
Rybka 4 will have to get a lot stronger than that to
compete with the top 2 engines. :)

Best,
Gerold.

Before few minutes on playchess, I was kíbitzing this game, unbelievable but real! :)

My Conclusion: Only ~ 2 weeks before the release of R4, I see most BUG's in Rybka. Can this be fixed in just two weeks??

[alpha123]

Well since it's "Rybka4Beta1" it could just be a very early version that is not close to the final version. You would have to ask whoever was running it.

It can't be a very early version....the damn thing is supposed to be released in less than 2 weeks....
Dr.D

LOL.

But, yeah, it IS an early version. Scary. Let's hope Vas is as much of a magician as they make him out to be....

BTW, was the year ever specified? Could be May 21 2011 or 2012....

I agree, it looks like a VERY early version, i.e. pre-Ippolit era.

Joerg

All in All you are right!

My new favorite engine is FIRE(Bird).

Fire understand (Rybka not in bishop) all underpromotions, and Fire have more endgame knowledge than Rybka. This are for me important aspects.

And all in all at last, the strenght of Fire 1.3 will be ~ egual with Rybka 4.

1.Do you think it's honest? 2.Do you think Norman is a genius? 3.Would you buy it?

1) Yes.
2) It's a possibility. With all due respect to Norman though, a bit unlikely.
3) Probably.
