Komodo 8CPU v Houdini 8CPU Match (2 hours + 30 secs)

[Graham Banks]

GAME 8
Houdini handled the opening differently to Komodo, choosing to go a pawn down to break out. Although Komodo initially looked to have an imposing position, this impression proved to be illusory and the extra pawn wasn't considered important by either side.
An eighth draw leaves the match deadlocked at 4-4.

[Graham Banks]

GAME 9
In the third Queen's Indian variation played in this match, Komodo (as black) comfortably equalised. Eventually a double rook endgame came about, but there were no hidden surprises and the game played out to a draw.
The match score is 4.5-4.5.

GAME 11
In a 1.b3 line, Houdini (as white) moves quickly to eliminate any possible danger on the kingside. The rooks all come off along the open h-file to leave a queen and minor pieces endgame. Houdini goes a pawn up, but Komodo's counter in with a central pawn push leads to a threefold repetition and draw.

GAME 12
Houdini breaks the deadlock with a piece sac on the kingside once Komodo has castled. There is no mating attack, but Komodo is eventually forced to give back the material and having to face a lost ending. A wonderful game from Houdini!
The match score is 6.5-5.5 to Houdini.

GAME 15
Houdini (as white) evaluated its position out of the opening and throughout the middlegame as reasonably favourable, but in reality there wasn't anything there and the game was drawn.
Houdini leads by 8.0-7.0.

GAME 16
Komodo pushes forward on the queenside and Houdini counters on the kingside. However, it's Komodo that gets on top, and after the queens come off, it wins the exchange and soon that after the game.
The match is level at 8.0-8.0.
