Good morning Uri, I hope you are well and continue to be well.
Uri. LeelaKnightOdds is like a wild horse; You ride him and he throws you on the ground again and again, then you get to know him, you make the horse ride, trot and run, finally you tame him, and he eats from your hand.
... how strange ... I have seen that the number of matches of the best players against LeelaQueenOdds has decreased? Also in bullet controls there are fewer Masters... what reason could there be for the lack of enthusiasm? I also note that the Top 100 position table has not been updated... how sad all this is...
I think that some interested has shifted back from queen odds to knight odds and rook odds. My guess is that many 2800+ bullet players have given up; their goal was probably to make a plus score at 1'0" at queen odds, but no one can do it so far, maybe Magnus or Hikaru might have a chance, but as far as we know they haven't tried. But it remains a good way to practice/improve bullet skills, so I expect we'll still see a reasonable number of such players playing the bot from time to time.
...life is like a chain of new experiences and knowledge
It seems here we have learned that LeelaQueenOdds has been stronger and more powerful than some elite players expected.
So they have preferred to step aside. But history has already been written and what is written is written. To achieve leadership or a good position in the table of the top 100 humans who face the robot, it is not enough to be an advanced player, it is also required to understand that we are facing a computer with all that this means.
I don't think that is necessary, although it works for you. It is sufficient to understand that the opponent is vastly stronger, and that we only need to simplify the position and avoid complications, although this is much easier said that done, especially at the smaller handicaps. Whether the opponent is a machine or some alien or super-human doesn't matter, it is the strength that matters. Top players know to simplify when winning, and they would dominate the top of the list if they played blitz rather than bullet queen odds. But it seems they like to challenge themselves.
Good evening Mr. Larey Kaufman and Mr. Marcogio9.
I hope you are well and continue well.
I wish you a very good year 2025.
I would like to ask something...
Since the last elo calculation of the top 100 of Leelaqueenodds, I have played driving the black chips, the modest amount of 1269 fights; I have been getting an idea of ​​the
reach the program, knowing little about
little their actions and reactions. I have been improving the percentage of points step by step, I usually play 100 games a day, although sometimes they are more or less. Today, for example, I have played 4 games and my performance is 50% tied, I have played 4 games, I have lost 2 and tied 2. But I usually stabilize at more or less 16%. I think I can improve, my human strategic memory is improving... I am worried about a series of encounters between players that "crush Leela" but the way of playing seems very implausible and could distort the table... I am also worried about the absence of GM and strong players, I don't know if they have become frustrated. It's good that the bulls returned to the bullring to compete...
Usually the strongest players play chess to earn money so you can expect them not to play games with odds against lc0 because they can use the same time to play humans in other tournament and earn money.

You are a good player at playing against Leela at queen odds at 1+0 time control but
I am sure that you are going to find strong GM's who perform better than you at 1+0 if there is money to earn from it.

Nobody in the table played the number of games that you play against LeelaQueenOdds(except nn1133) because people are not interested in it even if they can improve.

nn1133 also is not interested in playing against the queenodds version recently and most of his games against Leela are before the upgrade.

He play bullet but do it recently against humans.

Personally I also play mainly against humans(I use a different acount than uriblass to play against humans recently because I do not want people to know new openings that I play and prepare OTB for games against me based on games when I play with my real name).

Thanks Uri for the message. It really is very illustrative. I'm afraid I've spent my life fighting at windmills. Today I received a very profound message. Deeper, much deeper than Deep Blue. It goes like this: "Having faith is signing a blank sheet of paper and letting "our Programmer" write what he wants."
Of course I am surpassed by other chess players facing machines, the truth is that we really need to have them in the battle in the top 100 table facing LeelaQueenOdds. Sometimes it is better to be an amateur than a sports professional, because you can practice with greater freedom, for fun and for the simple love of playing. Again Uri: Thank you.
I am thinking chess is in a coin.Human beings for ever playing in one face.Now I am playing in the other face:"Antichess". Computers are as a fortres where owner forgot to close a little door behind. You must enter across this door.Forget the front.

Good morning Uri, I hope you are well and continue to be well.
Uri. LeelaKnightOdds is like a wild horse; You ride him and he throws you on the ground again and again, then you get to know him, you make the horse ride, trot and run, finally you tame him, and he eats from your hand.
... how strange ... I have seen that the number of matches of the best players against LeelaQueenOdds has decreased? Also in bullet controls there are fewer Masters... what reason could there be for the lack of enthusiasm? I also note that the Top 100 position table has not been updated... how sad all this is...
I think that some interested has shifted back from queen odds to knight odds and rook odds. My guess is that many 2800+ bullet players have given up; their goal was probably to make a plus score at 1'0" at queen odds, but no one can do it so far, maybe Magnus or Hikaru might have a chance, but as far as we know they haven't tried. But it remains a good way to practice/improve bullet skills, so I expect we'll still see a reasonable number of such players playing the bot from time to time.
...life is like a chain of new experiences and knowledge
It seems here we have learned that LeelaQueenOdds has been stronger and more powerful than some elite players expected.
So they have preferred to step aside. But history has already been written and what is written is written. To achieve leadership or a good position in the table of the top 100 humans who face the robot, it is not enough to be an advanced player, it is also required to understand that we are facing a computer with all that this means.
I don't think that is necessary, although it works for you. It is sufficient to understand that the opponent is vastly stronger, and that we only need to simplify the position and avoid complications, although this is much easier said that done, especially at the smaller handicaps. Whether the opponent is a machine or some alien or super-human doesn't matter, it is the strength that matters. Top players know to simplify when winning, and they would dominate the top of the list if they played blitz rather than bullet queen odds. But it seems they like to challenge themselves.
Good evening Mr. Larey Kaufman and Mr. Marcogio9.
I hope you are well and continue well.
I wish you a very good year 2025.
I would like to ask something...
Since the last elo calculation of the top 100 of Leelaqueenodds, I have played driving the black chips, the modest amount of 1269 fights; I have been getting an idea of ​​the
reach the program, knowing little about
little their actions and reactions. I have been improving the percentage of points step by step, I usually play 100 games a day, although sometimes they are more or less. Today, for example, I have played 4 games and my performance is 50% tied, I have played 4 games, I have lost 2 and tied 2. But I usually stabilize at more or less 16%. I think I can improve, my human strategic memory is improving... I am worried about a series of encounters between players that "crush Leela" but the way of playing seems very implausible and could distort the table... I am also worried about the absence of GM and strong players, I don't know if they have become frustrated. It's good that the bulls returned to the bullring to compete...
Usually the strongest players play chess to earn money so you can expect them not to play games with odds against lc0 because they can use the same time to play humans in other tournament and earn money.

You are a good player at playing against Leela at queen odds at 1+0 time control but
I am sure that you are going to find strong GM's who perform better than you at 1+0 if there is money to earn from it.

Nobody in the table played the number of games that you play against LeelaQueenOdds(except nn1133) because people are not interested in it even if they can improve.

nn1133 also is not interested in playing against the queenodds version recently and most of his games against Leela are before the upgrade.

He play bullet but do it recently against humans.

Personally I also play mainly against humans(I use a different acount than uriblass to play against humans recently because I do not want people to know new openings that I play and prepare OTB for games against me based on games when I play with my real name).
Thanks Uri for the message. It really is very illustrative. I'm afraid I've spent my life fighting at windmills. Today I received a very profound message. Deeper, much deeper than Deep Blue. It goes like this: "Having faith is signing a blank sheet of paper and letting "our Programmer" write what he wants."
Of course I am surpassed by other chess players facing machines, the truth is that we really need to have them in the battle in the top 100 table facing LeelaQueenOdds. Sometimes it is better to be an amateur than a sports professional, because you can practice with greater freedom, for fun and for the simple love of playing. Again Uri: Thank you.

Re: Amazing results of LeelaKnightOdds-Dev

Post by lkaufman »

Lately we have had a substantial number of blitz games (3'2") by strong players from Argentina (2 GMs and a strong IM) playing against both the knight odds and rook odds bots, allowing for comparisons to be made. For some reason, they are primarily playing with move odds as well (playing White every game), but since that applies to both handicaps the comparison is still valid. Both of the GMs have played quite a few games at each handicap. Although both GMs have FIDE classical ratings only slightly above the GM threshold of 2500 (2528 for Federico Perez Ponsa and 2514 for Pablo Zarnicki), Perez Ponsa seems to be a very strong blitz and bullet player, LIchess blitz 2809, bullet 3178!, chess.com blitz 2946. The combined results for Leela (playing Black only) against these two GMs at 3'2" are 90% at both Knight and move odds and at Rook and move odds, with the combined score for both odds also right at 90% against each GM. It's a decent sample, 36 games at rook and move odds, and 158 games at knight and move odds. It's quite surprising to me that there is no measurable difference in the results at knight and move odds compared to rook and move odds, given that we're talking about the same two players at the identical time limit. In Rapid games humans have generally done better with rook odds than with knight odds (as one would expect) as is also the case for GM-level engines in test matches, but these results are primarily with the engine playing White. Perhaps color is more critical for knight odds than for rook odds, it is particularly difficult to avoid a bad opening when playing Black with a knight missing. But with either handicap, the opening is usually very bad for Black in these games, it is really remarkable to me that Leela can score 90% against GMs in blitz playing Black at these handicaps. I think it just shows how many chances there are to complicate a chess game. Of course these players could make more draws if that were the goal, but they very rarely win a game at these handicaps and time controls. I think the chess world has much to learn from this, it just overturns our whole materialistic way of playing chess. It is amazing to me to see how often Leela reaches a drawn or even winning position while still down a piece, it's not just winning on blunders. Of course no human can replicate Leela, but I'm sure that the top players will learn some valuable lessons from these games once they start to pay attention.

Well, you almost got your wish. IM Faustino Oro, the amazing prodigy, did play four blitz games (3'2") with LeelaKnightOdds but taking White each game ("Knight and Move odds"). He drew one, lost the other three.

That's great news Mr. Larry Kaufman. The Odds become truly great, only "if the great ones" come to challenge them. The "Masters in general" give color and flavor to robots and chess. I want, with all the strength of my chess-playing soul, to whisper to the wind: "Masters and strong players" come to the robot party.!! Come to the Odds' emblematic dance. He also whispered in the wind: "Please come and play 1 +1 and 1+0 with the queen that I admire the most: "LeelaQueenOdds"!! Without you, the mature representatives of humans, the dance could become an incipient ceremony "Catecan shouts from the top of a mountain: "Faith moves mountains." ...and the echo of his voice is repeated in the coves from the top to the chasm. I know that Mr. Magnus Carlsen and Mr. Nakamura will give us, the ordinary fans, the street fighters, incentives to be happy. I wish you all a happy new year, and with faith, this message will be able to reach your minds and hearts. and I have faith "in my programmer" "our programmer."

I observe a marked evolution of LeelaknightOdds when the machine plays with white... of course it could also be my own regression and fatigue.
The machine definitely evades me and hides when I drive the white chips so I can't give a rating of the computer.

Today, for example, I have played 4 games and my performance is 50% tied, I have played 4 games, I have lost 2 and tied 2. But I usually stabilize at more or less 16%. I think I can improve, my human strategic memory is improving... I am worried about a series of encounters between players that "crush Leela" but the way of playing seems very implausible and could distort the table... I am also worried about the absence of GM and strong players, I don't know if they have become frustrated. It's good that the bulls returned to the bullring to compete...
Usually the strongest players play chess to earn money so you can expect them not to play games with odds against lc0 because they can use the same time to play humans in other tournament and earn money.

You are a good player at playing against Leela at queen odds at 1+0 time control but
I am sure that you are going to find strong GM's who perform better than you at 1+0 if there is money to earn from it.

Nobody in the table played the number of games that you play against LeelaQueenOdds(except nn1133) because people are not interested in it even if they can improve.

nn1133 also is not interested in playing against the queenodds version recently and most of his games against Leela are before the upgrade.

He play bullet but do it recently against humans.

Personally I also play mainly against humans(I use a different acount than uriblass to play against humans recently because I do not want people to know new openings that I play and prepare OTB for games against me based on games when I play with my real name).
Good morning Mr. Larry Kaufman and Mr. Uri Blass. I hope you are all well and that you continue to do well in the future. May motivation never be absent in your lives, and new goals always exist and each obstacle makes you stronger and better runners. For my part, I thank God for this new day. Today when I woke up and turned on my cell phone, I found that LeelaQueenOdds had hit me with a series of hits to the chin, which knocked me to the ground stunned. Now I understand the reason for my nightmares, and I was close to not being able to get up again. The machine grabbed me by the hair and threw me to the 13th position. I hope that in my case the number thirteen represents an omen, a lucky number, so I will try to kick the machine in the stomach, grab it by the neck and give it what it deserves. Again, I wish you a happy day and that our good Programmer helps us. Thank you.

Good morning Uri, I hope you are well and continue to be well.
Uri. LeelaKnightOdds is like a wild horse; You ride him and he throws you on the ground again and again, then you get to know him, you make the horse ride, trot and run, finally you tame him, and he eats from your hand.
... how strange ... I have seen that the number of matches of the best players against LeelaQueenOdds has decreased? Also in bullet controls there are fewer Masters... what reason could there be for the lack of enthusiasm? I also note that the Top 100 position table has not been updated... how sad all this is...
I think that some interested has shifted back from queen odds to knight odds and rook odds. My guess is that many 2800+ bullet players have given up; their goal was probably to make a plus score at 1'0" at queen odds, but no one can do it so far, maybe Magnus or Hikaru might have a chance, but as far as we know they haven't tried. But it remains a good way to practice/improve bullet skills, so I expect we'll still see a reasonable number of such players playing the bot from time to time.
...life is like a chain of new experiences and knowledge
It seems here we have learned that LeelaQueenOdds has been stronger and more powerful than some elite players expected.
So they have preferred to step aside. But history has already been written and what is written is written. To achieve leadership or a good position in the table of the top 100 humans who face the robot, it is not enough to be an advanced player, it is also required to understand that we are facing a computer with all that this means.
I don't think that is necessary, although it works for you. It is sufficient to understand that the opponent is vastly stronger, and that we only need to simplify the position and avoid complications, although this is much easier said that done, especially at the smaller handicaps. Whether the opponent is a machine or some alien or super-human doesn't matter, it is the strength that matters. Top players know to simplify when winning, and they would dominate the top of the list if they played blitz rather than bullet queen odds. But it seems they like to challenge themselves.
Good evening Mr. Larey Kaufman and Mr. Marcogio9.
I hope you are well and continue well.
I wish you a very good year 2025.
I would like to ask something...
Since the last elo calculation of the top 100 of Leelaqueenodds, I have played driving the black chips, the modest amount of 1269 fights; I have been getting an idea of ​​the
reach the program, knowing little about
little their actions and reactions. I have been improving the percentage of points step by step, I usually play 100 games a day, although sometimes they are more or less. Today, for example, I have played 4 games and my performance is 50% tied, I have played 4 games, I have lost 2 and tied 2. But I usually stabilize at more or less 16%. I think I can improve, my human strategic memory is improving... I am worried about a series of encounters between players that "crush Leela" but the way of playing seems very implausible and could distort the table... I am also worried about the absence of GM and strong players, I don't know if they have become frustrated. It's good that the bulls returned to the bullring to compete...

... apparently the robots are asleep or resting, my friend LeelaQueenOdds doesn't call me, she doesn't answer my messages, it seems like she's stopped wanting to dance with me. I'm on the bench alone and despised.
