Houdini_1.5 87.0 + 44 = 86 - 11
Rybka_4 54.0 + 11 = 86 - 44

**At the end of the match one draw will be removed and Rybka will get one more win for game 112 which was adjudicated incorrectly.

+83 elo for Houdini.

Looking good Pal. Keep up the good work.

Best,
Gerold.

Hi Pablo,

I don't know the formula but I know a very nice website where we can easily get the ELO difference given the match results.

Hi Pablo.

The ELO calc came from Gerold; I do not have a program to make that calculation. The site given by Paulo in response to your question gives the same number (+83).

Take care

I didn't forget. The subtract draw has not been down yet.

With the win for Rybka included. +80 elo for Houdini.

Best,
Gerold.

    Hi Paulo

      Thank you very much for posting the link to that site for ELO calculation. I had been looking for something to calc a change between 2 players with given ratings after 1 game but could not find one that allowed you to set the "K" number.

        Allowing for the result adjustment mentioned above by Ernest the change is +80 for Houdini.

            Take care
