Komodo 9.2 v Stockfish Dev 8-Core VLTC match

[Dan Cooper]

Before the TCEC8 Superfinal, I ran two VLTC matches between K 9.2 and Stockfish 211015/Stockfish 251015 for prediction purposes on an 8-core i7-5960X @ 4.5Ghz.

My favorite game from all 164 games played. K sacrifices the exchange for a pawn on the 6th rank and 2 advanced bishop outposts. SF is completely tied up and reduced to shuffling his pieces around. Simply a thing of beauty.

Yes, this is a great game. And also a nice test wich confirm TCEC result and give a small elo rating even if it still with big margin.

[whereagles]

wow what a game indeed.

[Laskos]

Thanks for the games, this is a very important test. Also, thanks for the shown astonishing game.
