H went astray with Nd7 and especially dc4, which seems to be suicidal. in the Dutch Stonewall, black should keep to the stonewall structure, and the rigth continuation is 9...g5, followed by h5, Kh7, Rg8, g4, etc., with very strong black kingside attack; black has at least an equality.
another option is to just hold onto the draw by placing all black pawns on white squares, defending aech other and doing nothing.

I guess white has bigger advantage than what the engines show, at least I have difficult time to fully equalise with black against engines here, although the position seems too symmetrical and a bit drawish.
quite possibly, c6-c5 was the major mistake, however, the books I have read on the line pointed specifically that, even if black mades it into the endgame, white has significant advantage.
This game did not strike me as particularly deserving of attention, however, the second one was really a nice positional example.

btw., in the hurry I did not see that black answered 1.e4 with d5.
why did not white capture on d5? (the Scandinavian is almost certainly a bust, at least 85% of lines)

Re: A Komodo 10.3 win against Houdini 5.01
You can't call that position fully equal in the slightest, one reason being that both white bishops are in good locations, and black's c8 bishop is buried. That's one reason already white is definitely better. That's why the move 21. Qb2! was so strong to grapple on to the e5 quare and prepare Be5, because if e5 is blocked that bishop at c8 stays buried. Very strong positional play by komodo. 16...Nxc4? was not good also.Lyudmil Tsvetkov wrote:a fully equal position that both engines evaluate as already losing for black. (+60-70cps)
H went astray with Nd7 and especially dc4, which seems to be suicidal. in the Dutch Stonewall, black should keep to the stonewall structure, and the rigth continuation is 9...g5, followed by h5, Kh7, Rg8, g4, etc., with very strong black kingside attack; black has at least an equality.
another option is to just hold onto the draw by placing all black pawns on white squares, defending aech other and doing nothing.
Regarding your line with 9...g5 10. Bh2 do you play 10...h5? now? That's bad because of Ne5 attacking g6 square, and black's development is lagging since he didn't play Nd7, and white is completely winning. after 9...g5 Bh2 better is 10...Nd7 is obvious developing move, and white has several choices at move 11, being Ne2, Rc1 and Komodo even looked at 11. Kh1! here just sidestepping any attack and giving a high white score, I'm not worried about the attack at all. All I have to do is keep my eye on buried c8 bishop and lack of black attackers to white defenders on KS to know white has great advantage.
To sum up, white definitely had advantage in that opening and Komodo's eval was right.
Sincerely,
Tim.

1...c6 is a perfectly solid system, being better than theh french defense becaue it doesn't bury the c8 bishop. White usually get slight edges,Lyudmil Tsvetkov wrote:it is not that easy to play the Caro-Kann with black; white already has the advantage of the first move + black makes with c6 only the 3rd or 4th best of the possible replies to 1.e4.

This game did not strike me as particularly deserving of attention, however, the second one was really a nice positional example.
C6-c5 was book move, and after dxc5 Rc8?! was the mistake, better is Qc7 or taking the pawn immediately with Bxc5 to avoid the grapple of the extra pawn with b4.
I agree this game wasn't particularly exciting, but it was the first decisive result in my match so I posted it. The second one however was sgtrategically rich and exciting.
Oh and regarding 1. e4 d5 3. d4 c6 I was using the Shortlines.ctg book by Jerome Noomen. I've made my own short books as well that would never have played 1...d5, but I respect Jerome Noomen's short book to allow engines to play more for themselves. So blame Jerome for that move.
Sincerely,
Tim.
