Last TCEC was very interesting because of the participation of the new Houdini.

I hope we will see again a new Houdini in the tournament.

Thank you for your support.
Houdini 6 will be released next month, maybe just in time for the TCEC tournament (I don't know when TCEC Season 10 starts, I have no more information than you).

Cheers,
Robert

OMG, thats is very very great news ! Knowing you, I m sure we can bet on a good elo jump ! Komodo might be in bad shape here !

simple logic: never houdart would participate in TCEC if the elo wasnt enough to challenge
komodo and stockfish,so i expect 50 and up elo jump
dont expect something like on 20-25 elo only.just trust stockfish open source

The new edition of TCEC is scheduled to take place in the last quarter of 2017. Once again the main goal of the championship will be to provide equal and fair conditions for the top chess engines to face each other and compete on a superb hardware.

For this goal to be completed, the TCEC staff has listened to the audience desires and feedback during S9 and will try to provide several upgrades for S10. A few conditions and variables are still unclear, but we will keep you updated about the proceedings of the season.

Schedule

The TCEC 2017 will start in late September or the beginning of October. The team needs 30 to 45 days more of preparation and clearing out the details

Time control 30 minutes more than enough for these games. Unless they want more viewers getting bored.

Yeah. The time controls for the last TCEC were definently too long. Most of us really enjoyed the blitz part of TCEC while I didnt`t watch many games at ltc

Different strokes for different folks. I expected I would like the rapids more than the LTC games, but I didn't. I wasn't alone either.

My biggest complaint was related to chat. If it goes anything like S9, you can be sure I won't have it active.

TCEC is prestigious. That's why time control is high, number of cores is high and we can see all the latest developments versions playing.

3 month for the whole TCEC is nice, no need to be too short or too long.

Three hours is probably overkill, but finals on 2 hours seems fine
