I can't recall all the games, but Komodo narrowly won the knight odds game 4.5-3.5, double exchange and Ke5 games by a larger margin, and lost bishop odds, rook odds, and queen odds. (There were probably a few more that I missed, too.)

Final results:

Queen for rook odds: Lenderman won once with each color.

Rook odds: Lenderman won once with each color.

Rook odds chess 960: Lenderman won once with White, drew once and won wonce with Black.

Bishop (queen's bishop) odds: Lenderman won once with each color

Knight odds: with White, Lenderman drew and won once each. With Black, he won one with g1 odds, but scored one win, one draw, and three losses with b1 odds.

Two rooks for two knights odds, Lenderman White: One draw, one win for each side.

Queen for two knights, Lenderman White: Three draws, one win for Komodo

Komodo plays Black with King starting on e5: Two Komodo wins.

Hi,
Where are the blitz games? I can't find it in Komodo site. If i'm not wrong, it's the same 24core Hardware used for the blitz right?

Yes, it was the same 24 core machine. Jesse said he would put the blitz games up, but maybe he needs some time.
Komodo rules!

Thanks to Vincent we have a pgn.

There are 28 games and just 26 were played so two of the games are likely from the rapid match. Someone should check that all the games are there and that the players are listed as having the right colors.
