I still like Chess Tiger 2007

Post by reflectionofpower »

I sometimes use it to look at my own games, and it still makes seemingly human-like moves. In this game it chooses 10...g4 which is what I played. All the other top engines choose differently. It would be nice to see a multicore version yet still retain these qualities.

U mean in the style settings? Yeah, u could really pump it up then. After that, they had "Gambit Aggressive" and the bloodiest - "Gambit Suicidal" I still have Chess System Tal which is another fine program unique in its style verse others at that time.

For me I still like Chess Tiger 14 and Gambit Tiger 2.0 Aggressive settings the most among the Chess Tiger engines.

Chess Tiger 14 when it came out was crushing everything in sight and even won a GM tournament held in South America

I remember the late John Panuzzo on ICC was using it and the GM's didn't want to play it. It used to rip right through them.
