IGT 2018 - Man vs Machine

[alessandro]

Hi!

During the IGT 2018 a two matches man vs machine took place. Valerio Luciani, a chess master with a bit more than 2100ELO points, played against AdaChess in a 25'+10".
AdaChess won both of games, the first one actually Valerio ran out of clock.
I wish to thanks again Valerio for giving me the chance to watch my engine in a real match!

I used Arena as a GUI. I kept the comment into the PGN if someone should be interested.

Well done!
