That's kinda impressive then.Ovyron wrote: ↑Tue Dec 03, 2019 12:21 amI'm sure those positions are drawn even though I can't prove it. Also, Harvey's moves up to this point have been pretty much forced, because other alternatives were 0.00. Even if I can't prove it.
I think you and other people on the forum have this idea that you have to prove something to know it, but sometimes proof is something unreachable, and you just need to reach a level of certainty to know something.
I don't even have 6 piece TBs

Re: Dylan Sharp Vs. Harvey Williamson (G4)
And I'll claim that in the position after the move I'm making, 25...Be6 is the only black's move that isn't 0.00, so I know Harvey will make it, though I can't prove it.
The idea is that if I'm able to predict all of Harvey's moves, then I can draw the game, but it takes a while...

Re: Dylan Sharp Vs. Harvey Williamson (G4)
No way.
I'm going ahead and admit that if this was a "one week per move" (or faster) game Harvey would have probably beaten me by force (...unless I draw and I'd have played the same moves anyway).
I guess I can give something for the audience to look at, huh... what about positions analysed for my Candidate Moves?
1. Nb5 (2872 nodes analyzed)
2. Rc1 (605 nodes analyzed)
3. Bd2 (182 nodes analyzed)
4. Ne2 (1 node analyzed - deemed lost )
So I'll probably end up playing Nb5 (lest I lose +78% of my analysis), as Rc1 would need to overcome it and then stay ahead until I analyze as many nodes for it.
But I don't think anybody would bet the house for what move I'll play

Re: Dylan Sharp Vs. Harvey Williamson (G4)
Update (to save the thread from page 2)
1. Nb5 (4187 nodes analyzed)
2. Rc1 (605 nodes analyzed)
3. Bd2 (182 nodes analyzed)
4. Ne2 (1 node analyzed - deemed lost )
Apparently I haven't analyzed anything else but Nb5, though I've rechecked positions to look for alternatives in the other moves.

Re: Dylan Sharp Vs. Harvey Williamson (G4)
Explain this "1 node analyzed". For that to be even vaguely true, I guess you have to think about that move for a split-second and immediately judge it lost. Otherwise it would be more than 1 node... Or maybe I should step back and ask what you mean by "n nodes analyzed".

1.Ne2 xx when xx is black's move the score of stockfish after 999999999999 nodes is more than +4 pawns for black so he considers it as a win for black.
xx is the only node in his tree.
He does not count the 999999999999 nodes of stockfish.
I do not say the number are 4 pawns and 999999999999 nodes and his numbers of course may be different.

Re: Dylan Sharp Vs. Harvey Williamson (G4)
Whoa, long post lost.
But anyway, the point is that, yeah, Ne2 is below some threshold (that is deemed lost) and this is reached by only examining its node (the positions where Ne2 is played) so my engine might have analyzed more than a hundred million nodes of it but I only count the time I'm on the position and ask the engine for analysis, as Uri said.

Re: Dylan Sharp Vs. Harvey Williamson (G4)
Okay, but if that number is the number of nodes you "personally dwell on" (to make up a description), does that mean you personally dwelt upon 4187 positions starting from Nb5 (with SF calculating "999999999999 nodes" at each)?
