Clearly this guy, no enough contented with the advantage given to him -a pawn and the whites all the time- consider neccesary to dug in deep.
What a shame!

In the opening a Queen's Rook Pawn isn't worth a S*!*, in fact it helps the computer by giving it a half-open Queen's Rook File!!!

They are cheating! :P

No, this game is not appropriate for that kind of conclusions.
If you haven't noticed, it was a handicap game. Rybka had black and didn't had the f-Pawn from the start, which is a HUGE handicap.
But black doesn't have to play to completely block things up if he "thinks" he is better. That was my point. Computers walk into these kinds of positions all the time against humans that are willing to push thing in this direction.

So it's logical that the GM outplayed Rybka 3 for a big part of the game as without f-Pawn black's play is absolutely paralyzed!

Roman isn't a "top GM" today. And an oversight brings him down as was discussed previously...
Actually Rybka 3 already had an advantage. The mistake just killed white immediately.....
What advantage do you see??? As a human I see white with a big space advantage, and not pushed back into a corner.

I understand that. But I have played plenty of "odds matches" against humans over the years, and I knew that I was a better player, and I was not going to let them lock things up and strangle me... the difference between a human and a computer is wide in that regard...

It does not prove superior positional undersanding of humans.

It is possible that even using the 31 piece tablebases is not going to help to avoid blocking the position because the slowest way to lose is going to allow the opponent to block the position.

Computers are basically not good at handicap games because they do not consider the fact that their opponent may miss something and inspite of this disadvantage Rybka won the match 2.5:1.5 when the GM could not win a single game.

Rybka proved to be superior even in closed positions when rybka saw that the GM can beat her but GM Dzindzichashvili did not see the right moves

52.h5 could win the game for Dzindzi in game 3 and I understood that rybka3 could find it unlike GM Dzindzichashvili

Then you are simply not following the discussion. Have you ever played weaker players and given them material odds to help equalize? If so, have you _ever_ played such moves to totally lock up the pawn structure so that you can't use your superior experience and tactical ability to beat them? Computers fall into these stupid positions all the time, whether it be in odds matches or heads-up. And it clearly shows that humans have a better grasp of what is going on than the computers do...

Sorry but that is a _poor_ definition of "superior" when you see ways your opponent can beat you because you have played poorly in previous moves.

The point is, it had played into a dead lost position. And, as is generally the case, the GM made an error. Roman is probably more likely to make errors like this than younger GM players, as age is a factor. But regardless of the opponent, even if it were Kasparov or Fischer in their prime, they still make mistakes... And the computer benefits from that more than its lack of positional understanding in these kinds of positions.

BTW, missing h4 is simply a tactical oversight. I ran this on Crafty on a fairly fast box and got this:

Not surprised a GM would overlook that kind of deep tactic in a complicated position...
