Wow … a gem of a game indeed! Incredible how forceful that bishop pin was. Even with a Queen and two rooks and what looked like an exposed King … yet it seemed that it was impossible to untangle. Probably somewhere at some time, material had to be returned. I can't but imagine how a human would have felt … being up a queen and still having 2 rooks on board and yet being helpless. Funny how even a queen down … still able to play quiet pawn moves … Lc0 was always a little sadistic

No one said anything about proof, though without proof it can be difficult to know truth.

What? "Untruth is not beautiful"? Art (literature, painting, movies...) is lies — and beauty.jp wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 12:35 amBeauty is just subject to truth. That's all.

I have been very impressed with Ethereal 12, it is very, very strong and now with a more refined positional style to boot.
But the way Lc0, even on my very weak hardware (laptop with built-in Nividia card) beat it from a position where Ethereal thought it was +4 is the most amazing thing I've EVER seen.
Witness this amazing game.

To do this to a weak engine is one thing...but to Ethereal?
With a BISHOP vs a queen?
What the hell is going on here? Amazing.
Entertaining game, no doubt - thx for sharing...
....
Ethereal could save the game with 64.Rf1 instead of Qd8
Houdini 6.02 has until 63...Rc3 a score of 0.00
Now only Rf1 and Rhd1 are 0.00 moves
Analysis by Houdini 6.02 Pro x64-pext:
64.Rf1 Rc7 65.Qd8 Kh7 66.Qd5 Kh6
The position is equal: = (0.00) Depth: 52/114 03:31:34 120677MN, tb=1919927
and 67.Qd8 Re7 68.Qd5 Rc7 69.Qd8 Threefold repetition
64.Dd8? is a blunder. Houdini 6.02: 64...Rf3 -6.48 Depth: 34

64. Qd5-d8? is the losing mistake, equal is : 64.Rf1 Rcc2 65.Rg1 Rc7 66.Rf1 0.00

By this measure, neither the Evergreen game nor the Immortal game is beautiful.jp wrote: ↑Fri Apr 10, 2020 11:47 pmThe word "blunder" is loaded, so it should probably be avoided.Dann Corbit wrote: ↑Fri Apr 10, 2020 11:29 pm I'm with BrendanJNorman.

My first rule of a beautiful/amazing game is to play through it with Winboard.
The importance of this step cannot be over-emphasized.
For instance, if you analyze the Immoral game or the Evergreen game, the computer will point out "blunders" like not capturing a piece that was offered. But when you watch the game unfold unaided, it is a thing of beauty. This game is one of those.
But a sacrifice should not be called "beautiful" if it turns out to be unsound, so it does matter in the end whether it loses with best play. (It can still be "amazing", because that includes everything, including "amazingly bad".) If best play after a sac leads to a draw, that's passable but still not as "beautiful" as if it wins.
So the unavoidable question is: when the Q is sacrificed, what is the theoretical result of that position?
Taking ideas is not a vice, it is a virtue. We have another word for this. It is called learning.
But sharing ideas is an even greater virtue. We have another word for this. It is called teaching.

Consider the concept of a cube, all right angles and all sides the same measure.
He considered and actual physical cube a degraded form a a cube, since it does not have mathematical perfection.
And a painting of a cube was even worse, a degradation of a degradation.
