This is not something that requires testing. Version 11248 beat Naroditsky in blitz at about piece odds in a match. Any version starting with a 2 or higher number, if asked to play a game at knight odds, will start making silly blunders within a few moves. Even if you are rated 1500 or less, you can easily beat any of these versions at knight odds, it's totally obvious how awful they are.jp wrote: ↑Fri Apr 10, 2020 8:56 pmI'm not sure later Leela nets give away pieces more than earlier nets.

It's definitely not a way of playing less incorrectly
Then again, I'm not sure later Leela nets don't hustle and fake as much as earlier nets either.

Re: Komodo vs GM Smerdon knight odds match
That's bad. I wonder if that makes Leela bad for analyzing unclear positions material down too. (Or, if it needs to be worse than unclear, positions down material but "with practical chances".)

Re: Komodo vs GM Smerdon knight odds match
As long as Leela judges the win prob. to be above 5% or so, I think it plays ok, with the cutoff depending somewhat on the version. But once it gets close to what it considers resignable, it ceases to be able to tell good moves from bad ones. I noticed that the L14 network is a bit better than the regular Lc0 networks at knight odds in that it generally plays good positional moves, but still blunders pieces sometimes. Lc0 is still very strong at pawn and move (f7) odds, the win prob. is above the threshold, but much beyond that handicap it falls apart.

Re: Komodo vs GM Smerdon knight odds match
Game 2: French defence.
Komodo plays a3. Followed by b4. N trade on e4, opening the d file. Komodo trades Qs.
Komodo takes the e4 pawn.
Smerdon plays ... Nb8 instead of the better Nd8.
Komodo plays f5. But White has nothing and should lose this endgame.

Re: Komodo vs GM Smerdon knight odds match
0-1. Komodo is checkmated.
Match level 1-1.
----------------------
Game 3: after 6 moves, already -5.00. Komodo needs a better opening book.
Miro says the opening went extremely well for Smerdon.
Smerdon plays h6 and g5.
After 15 moves, Black should win easily.

Re: Komodo vs GM Smerdon knight odds match
I was analyzing with the Regular Komodo and it detected that Komodo MTCS made a horrible blunder. I Believe that you should use the regular Komodo for Tomorrow, and that will create more tension to the GM knowing that he will be playing with a totally different version of Komodo.
PS: Can they also use the other version of Komodo to analyze besides the commentaries of the Humans ?

Re: Komodo vs GM Smerdon knight odds match
Komodo MCTS best chance is to play a Knight for a pawn, whereas the GM will remove one of his pawn and the engine his knight. Probably in 6 months Komodo NN might beat the same GM with a Knight Odd. You can probably raise the price to $150 for a Win and $50 for a Draw, if the GM accept to play the rest of the games tomorrow with a Knight for a pawn.Chessqueen wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 4:28 amI was analyzing with the Regular Komodo and it detected that Komodo MTCS made a horrible blunder.

Re: Komodo vs GM Smerdon knight odds match
Komodo (both versions) already scored 2.5 out of 3 giving knight for pawn (details differed) to MVL and Naka, perhaps the two best rapid players in the world after MC. For a future match, GM Alex Lenderman suggested knight for tempo; White plays his move, Black uses his first move to "capture" the knight (remove it), and White gets a second move, presumably 1.e4 and 2.d4, then it's Black's turn. Philidor used to give this handicap. I think it is suitable for a midrange GM in rapid. It just needs a good name!Chessqueen wrote: ↑Sat Apr 11, 2020 5:04 amKomodo MCTS best chance is to play a Knight for a pawn, whereas the GM will remove one of his pawn and the engine his knight.
