Hi Clemens.
The book is 12 moves deep for each side and is based on openings used by players who have either been world champs, challengers or candidates.
GAME 3 - Komodo is again the aggressor, this time from the white side of a Caro-Kann. However, Stockfish defends well and gains equality by giving up a pawn to exchange into a drawish rook and pawn ending.
GAME 4 - with 19....Qb3, Komodo initiates wholesale exchanges that lead into another drawish rook and pawn ending. After the first four games of the match, Komodo holds onto its slender 1-0 lead.
GAME 6 - Stockfish attempts to liven things up a little in a dead equal middlegame get nowhere. Another draw. So after six games, Komodo still leads 1-0.
