Slow 2.5 - Fritz 17 (Ginkgo), 1:0, mate in 24 moves!

[Frank Quisinsky]

Hi there,

a very nice combination ...
I like SlowChess so much ... my congrats to the programmer for this aggressive engine!!

FCP Tourney-2021 game ...
40 in 12 = 40 minutes games with 1 core and 4.9Ghz on Intel i9-10900k hardware!

24 moves vs. Fritz 17!!
Never see before that Fritz 17 lost so fast a game!

Best
Frank

It's surely nice to now have engines that can thoroughly punish such passive play.
