There is too small a sample size to conclude anything about Nemorino's Elo gains from the results in TCEC League 1.

Here is a position in which most human GMs will probably move its White King TO b6 and later promote, here comes the Big Surprise Nemorino promote to Queen and Ethereal resigned after taking the Queen thinking for 1 minute :shock:

Obviously you cannot read TCEC graphs and output properly, moreover uci engines don't resign at all.

Nemorino thought 4 minutes and Ethereal answered in 5 seconds, then the GUI adjudicated the game as a TBS win (syzygy 6men adjudication).
Nemorinos move also is no surprise at all, it is a typical move with using tablebases...
Okay I really did NOT pay attention of the fact that Nemorino thought for 4 minutes which tell that something obviously is wrong or went wrong for Nemorino not to chose Bh3 or Kb6, or even Bc4 followed by Kb6 ! as the best move, and that Ethereal did NOT resigned and it was the GUI that resigned for Ethereal. But the programmer of Nemorino should take a close look and find out why Nemorino promoted which is a longer way to find mate.
Do NOT worry and be happy, we all live a short life :roll:

Probably because games at TCEC are adjudicated at 6 men endgame tablebases, and the engines at TCEC are looking for the fastest route to tablebase wins, rather than to mate.

That promotion to Queen is NOT typical it is just another way to win but NOT the fastest, since I run it with 6 men syzygy and it made another move which found a faster way to mate, therefore, I will put you on my oblivion list :roll:

I guess that it is the fastest way for 6 piece tablebase win that is good enough for part of the engines to choose the move.

Okay Uri I just realized that if the programmer instructed Nemorino to give away material just so the GUI can call the match a win in nemorino favor then it is the fastest way to force the game to end, but if you look closely like Paloma pointed out there must be a bug in Nemorino since in move 61 Kb6?way before it reached the position where nemorino offer its Queen for free in move 61.Kb6 is a big blunder where 61.Rd8 Ra7 followed by 62. Kb8! Rf7 63.a7 Rxa7 and force the exchange of the a7 would be much better move, and NOT even a 1300 engine would make such a bad move.

Yes, 65.a8=Q is a bad move.
