Whatever is current - Amazing Leela

[Ovyron]

Being the best when other do not know about it is not fun

But all the top chess players have a secret preparation and they don't share it with others, lines prepared several years ago one day have a chance to be played and take someone by surprise and win a game, otherwise, you can't find information about them anywhere.

This is the competitive nature of chess. Ironically, if you don't content you can't know the lines, but if you contend and know about the lines you don't want other contenders to know.

I have no idea who make the best opening book

The one that gives the most book wins against what other people are using currently, and only one person has the book (unless they decide to share it with others, asked to not make the book public.) Keeping a private book strong is very hard and requires playing daily against strong opponents, nobody knows who has the strongest one until they play in a tournament.

I read claims that white's Giuoco Piano has been busted but do not know where to find games to show that black get the advantage.

I suggest you get the strongest engine that you can and set up a book that plays the Giuoco Piano as white with the best white line you believe exists, and play in the daily Tournaments of InfinityChess. After a few days you'll be paired with someone and they'll bust your line and you'll see the moves needed to take it down.

The claim that 1.e4 e5 2.Qf3 is good for white also seems strange for me because I know no strong human players who play this opening.

Qf3 was found by a learning Cluster that is trying different openings and plays the most successful ones, and it was successful with Qf3. All the people from the past that think "2.Qf3 is a bad move because it sins against about all the opening rules and gives away the advantage of the first move" could have reached a lost position against that cluster, as least if taken by surprise (I was taken by surprise by it; unfortunately, or fortunately, the Cluster reached a won position and then busted it and I saved a draw, and I wasn't the only one...)

I do not have a gpu and I do not have a fast computer so I analyzed only with stockfish when I do not see advantage for black after
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 inspite of analyzing with default contempt that mean I can expect advantage for black even in an equal position.

You'll never get to see an engine showing black advantage for black after 3.Bc4, it requires:

1. A backsolved analysis tree like Aquarium's, Chess Openings Wizard, or Chess Opening Trainer.

2. The relevant lines (I could have never found these lines by myself, they had to be played against me.)

3. Interactive analysis (the one you use on correspondence games or Freestyle chess, that knows what positions need to be extended and what need an alternative seeked.)

4. Overriding the engine's score in leaf nodes (the hardest part as there are 0.00 positions that black is actually winning and you have to manually identify those)

After that you'll have the lines that show the Italian is busted, and will be able to get book wins against opponents that play it against you. I have found no other use for those lines...

Isn't that position just the precursor to the gp?

After that you'll have the lines that show the Italian is busted, and will be able to get book wins against opponents that play it against you. I have found no other use for those lines...

You seem to be back to claiming that Black wins after 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4. Earlier you said "busted" meant that Black can more than equalize.

Surely this position is simply a draw with perfect play, so no one with decent hardware should be winning/losing with it.

(Emphasis mine)

Aha, so I think this is a key problem with your approach:

After the first diagram, only Nf6 and Bc5 are moves relevant to statistics, the rest of the moves can be taken out because the critical line played by black (best play) doesn't include them.

Suppose Nf6 wasn't worthy of being included, then with only Bc5 moves, the relevant games of the first diagram would be "white_wins 9549; black_wins 8690; draws 7146".

Similarly, in a future position there are thousands of games where black doesn't play best, which pollute the statistics, as you'd remove those the first diagram would show less and less games.

I wonder how it'd look like if you removed the worst scoring moves of black from statistics (because nobody in their right mind would play those moves) and if your approach would be able to find the critical line where black comes up ahead, or if the line is so deep it hasn't been played in any of the games of your statistics.

But all this shows that for players that don't know what are the best moves, it is easier for white to find them than for black.

[Ovyron]

You seem to be back to claiming that Black wins after 1. e4 e5 2. Nf3 Nc6 3. Bc4. Earlier you said "busted" meant that Black can more than equalize.

Black can more than equalize, and that's it, but that doesn't mean you can't get book wins as well (regardless of hardware - positions that you can use a toaster to win against the strongest Leelas and Stockfishes out there. Positions I haven't been able to find from the white side of the Italian, for instance.)

Surely this position is simply a draw with perfect play, so no one with decent hardware should be winning/losing with it.

The strongest hardware available with the strongest software available plays still very far away from perfection. That's why the highest rated players in correspondence chess still lose games (at 3 year/game time control). The only reason draw death is perceived is because apparently, with strength comes risk aversion, so the strongest people play the safest lines, and people that have to defeat them have lose aversion, so they'll also play the safest lines against them.

There's not enough incentive to try to win at all cost.

Being the best when other do not know about it is not fun

But all the top chess players have a secret preparation and they don't share it with others, lines prepared several years ago one day have a chance to be played and take someone by surprise and win a game, otherwise, you can't find information about them anywhere.

This is the competitive nature of chess. Ironically, if you don't content you can't know the lines, but if you contend and know about the lines you don't want other contenders to know.

I have no idea who make the best opening book

The one that gives the most book wins against what other people are using currently, and only one person has the book (unless they decide to share it with others, asked to not make the book public.) Keeping a private book strong is very hard and requires playing daily against strong opponents, nobody knows who has the strongest one until they play in a tournament.

I read claims that white's Giuoco Piano has been busted but do not know where to find games to show that black get the advantage.

I suggest you get the strongest engine that you can and set up a book that plays the Giuoco Piano as white with the best white line you believe exists, and play in the daily Tournaments of InfinityChess. After a few days you'll be paired with someone and they'll bust your line and you'll see the moves needed to take it down.

The claim that 1.e4 e5 2.Qf3 is good for white also seems strange for me because I know no strong human players who play this opening.

Qf3 was found by a learning Cluster that is trying different openings and plays the most successful ones, and it was successful with Qf3. All the people from the past that think "2.Qf3 is a bad move because it sins against about all the opening rules and gives away the advantage of the first move" could have reached a lost position against that cluster, as least if taken by surprise (I was taken by surprise by it; unfortunately, or fortunately, the Cluster reached a won position and then busted it and I saved a draw, and I wasn't the only one...)

I do not have a gpu and I do not have a fast computer so I analyzed only with stockfish when I do not see advantage for black after
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 inspite of analyzing with default contempt that mean I can expect advantage for black even in an equal position.

You'll never get to see an engine showing black advantage for black after 3.Bc4, it requires:

1. A backsolved analysis tree like Aquarium's, Chess Openings Wizard, or Chess Opening Trainer.

2. The relevant lines (I could have never found these lines by myself, they had to be played against me.)

3. Interactive analysis (the one you use on correspondence games or Freestyle chess, that knows what positions need to be extended and what need an alternative seeked.)

4. Overriding the engine's score in leaf nodes (the hardest part as there are 0.00 positions that black is actually winning and you have to manually identify those)

After that you'll have the lines that show the Italian is busted, and will be able to get book wins against opponents that play it against you. I have found no other use for those lines...

1)Engines get stronger so do not see the basis for the confidence that I will never get an engine that show black advantage for black after 3.Bc4 and maybe somebody with strong hardware and a lot of analysis time can find advantage for black after 3.Bc4 in case there is an advantage.

2)For the surprise with 2.Qf3 I think that surprise can work mainly in fast time control.
It may be interesting if it is possible to beat strong engines in correspondence game with 1.e4 e5 2.Qf3 when the engines use some hours per move.

I suspect that it is impossible.

Would you have made this statement back in 2013? Because the strength of "strong engines at some hours per move" from then is the same as the strength of what we have today after a few minutes, so if engines from 2025 can produce moves that would beat today's engines at these time controls, it's clear someone can find those moves today and beat those engines.

From all the things I've seen called "impossible", this is one of the most likely. Perhaps Ozymandias (who was beating someone considered unbeatable at corr chess, at Freestyle time controls) could do it.

[Uri Blass]

Note that it is impossible to keep good lines as secret for a long time because there are sites that give games.

Note that If 3.Bc4 is bad then I expect black to fight for a win in ICCF world championship.

In the following game I do not see black try to win but this tournament only started in 2017
https://www.iccf.com/game?id=948298

Maybe we are going to see games when black win against 3.Bc4 in the following tournament
https://www.iccf.com/event?id=79897

Maybe we are going to see top humans use the good lines in public games.
i do not believe that it is possible to save the good lines as a secret for a long time.

The strange thing if the line 1.e4 e5 2.Qf3 is good for white
is that I know of no games of players above 2500 OTB with 1.e4 e5 2.Qf3 because I expect top players OTB to have more motivation to analyze lines like that line to win an important tournament because they can earn a lot of money from preperation.

This is the highest rated player to play this line in my database. The 2500 Elo player was crushed by a 1075 elo player ?! The line can not be that bad.
