I guess they rent a machine ? Because otherwise it cost 100K.

Also, I don't see Leela favorite at all even with that kind of support, but the game should be very interesting.

There appears to be a small mistake there - because HIARCS is only playing in the software division and not the WCCC (why?) - Leela and HIARCS won't play each other - I presume.

actually, they were 0W 6L 0D against the top 6 in 2016, so probably not just jonny.

Hmm, maybe Hiarcs Team has not strong enough Hardware or the Engine is not strong enough after so long development since H14.
Hope it's not like that.
