StockFish 4 v Hooudini 1 min games

[PawnStormZ]

            The match is between the 64 bit versions of Stockfish 4 SSE4.2 and Houdini 3.  I am using the version of Stockfish with Timestamp: 1377169986 by Marco Costalba on Aug 22 which corrects the endgame "memory leak".

           Match conditions: Intel core I7 920 at 2.66GHz using 4 cores HT on; Win 7 64 Home Premium; 6G RAM; pc doing nothing but the match while a game is being played. Each engine uses its default settings; no large pages; no end-game tablebases; 512 hash each; 4 threads each; ponder off.

           210 games were played; the time control is game in 1 min plus 50 milliseconds per move. I am using the excellent "ChessGUI" to run the match, set to give each engine a 5 millisecond "overstep" margin to help avoid any time losses.

           The openings are played using random choices from the "8moves.epd" opening book; each opening is played as Black and White by each engine.

                 Standings after game 210

             Houdini 3      113    + 71    = 84    - 55
             Stockfish 4      97    + 55    = 84    - 71
 
 
           The 210 games can be downloaded from http://www.datafilehost.com/d/1430f25e

Hi Pal,

reserving some of SF time as "Emergency Base Time" helps it avoid losses on time under ChessGUI.

Cheers,
Matthias.

           Thanks Matthais; I did not see any time losses by SF even without touching that setting in ths match.

           I was not intending to post all 210 games here; just trying to see if the GUI formated pgn-file would display properly in the game viewer.
 
           I tried to do 10 games but it would preview ok but not be there when I posted.  Maybe there is a character length on the pgn that can be added?  After several failed trys with 10 games, I was able to get it to accept 2.

           Sorry about the above link.  I had used that service before without a problem but now they had made the file into some weird "exe" and it did not dl properly.   Hopefully this one will work better...
