Hello Bram,

About the first game,
I think the opening B84 did not suit for Komodo 8 playing style, that's why the game is ended very early...

Best,
Sedat

Yes, that can be true. But especially the game illustrates in which area Komodo can improve. Kingside attacks.

Yes, that can be true. But especially the game illustrates in which area Komodo can improve. Kingside attacks.
Komodo team does need to optimize especially for the current position
I mean, (in case of using Perfect 2015 book) Komodo will never loose too fast

Note also during WSET duel,
Perfect 2014t book was free of choice at 8th moves for Blacks (the book was up to 7 moves in this position)
Komodo preferred to play one of the weakest moves (8th b6) at 25 % winning percentage

BTW,
The below screenshot belongs to Perfect 2015 (a book up to 8 moves), which is based on super strong engine moves
And next time....especially at the same position, the engines will play 8th. Nc6 at approx. 47 % winning percentage
