As far as can be judged by observing the games and the results, there is no diminishing strength difference to be seen between Komodo and Houdini, as was the myth created by Don.
Game 18 was an example of good late middlegame/endgame play by Houdini. With black it played very strong as you can replay from move 80 till move 112.


Hi Bram,

indeed it seems like there is no worse scaling of Houdini with long TCs. Ok, Don and Larry were talking about version 1.5a, maybe they were right concerning that version, but version 2.0c shows the same excellent performance like in shorter TCs.

The game you mentioned was very thrilling in the late middlegame / endgame, but in the end the time was too short for Houdini to find the best moves. With an even longer TC like 125/50+125/50+... (repeating) maybe it would score even better.

Best regards
Timo



It is true, but with a longer time control of 125/50+125/50+... (repeating) Komodo might benefit more than the rest of the engines.
