Re: TCEC Match 5 - Long TC Live Broadcast! R4 vs Stockfish 1
Hi Martin
Is it not a little bit unfair to use single core engines VS 4 core engines ?
I think that single core Houdini can beat 4 core Hannibal if it was available,
not the other way around...

Do you ask that same question when Rybka cluster participates in an "official" event with 128 processor cores?
The thing is - watching the same engines over and over again can get a bit boring when the rate of play is so slow - that's why I want to include other engines from people I respect. Since, in this particular case, Hannibal doesn't support more than one core then one core it is.
Hiarcs doesn't come in a 64-bit version - is that fair or unfair?
Since TCEC is about the games and not the ratings - just enjoy it for what it is.
Best Regards,
Martin

Hi Martin
I enjoyed the first game, not sure what Rybka was up to with the queen manoeuvre in the middle game though. Good result in the end. I felt that Stockfish showed the better understanding of the game overall.

This match is now finished.
Rybka 4 beat Stockfish 1.9 by 18 to 14.
Check out game 32 - it's a very nice win by Stockfish.
You can find it in the archive page.
The next tournament/match will start later this week - keep an eye on the news page for updated information.
PS: The hardware used in TCEC will be upgraded before the next event as well!

Is this result by SF, the best result vs Rybka 4 so far, TCEC?
I'm away, so i cannot see it 24 hours like when at home. But I like S Fishes results towards the end!
