That's an idea we could try in the future. I imagine it would add at least a hundred elo. Maybe combined with White pieces, draw odds, and no book it might be enough for a fair match. Perhaps unlimited number of takebacks, but only one per move and not after he plays another move.overlord wrote:Larry, why don´t you offer Nakamura to play completly different odd match? From my point of view it is more iteresting to see normal chess, but with také back odds (let´s say that Nakamura can take back five moves). You might be very surprised how much it improves human play.

Is there a live feed somewhere that one doesn't have to pay a subscription to see?

Re: Nakamura vs. Komodo
Take back moves? Naka is a fighter, not a coward. He wouldn't even want that. I'm actually surprised that he is playing odds matches like these. It seems like your trying to turn chess and Elo into a mathematical formula. Let's just have normal chess. We do not need take back moves and\or handicap entries to purposely serve as an advantage to the human being. The only thing that could occur here are fabricated, fake victories if obtained by the human being.lkaufman wrote:That's an idea we could try in the future.

You speak about serving as a fair match. What is the point of cheating the position that the computer becomes forced to play - a position that would never actually come to light? Not matter how you try to spin this, this stuff is fake. Masters become great because they worked hard at the game and achieved obtaining their norms and winning tournaments. They will always fight. They don't need handicaps to win by cheating. They will lose against Komodo, sure, but they should lose with honor.

Re: Nakamura vs. Komodo
If you are a day ahead, maybe you can tell us how the first games turned out? And can I borrow the time machine. I would only use it to see what I did tomorrow so I could spend the day on vacation.

Re: Nakamura vs. Komodo
The broadcast is a real pain.
Those GMs need a separate board to show all of their analysis on, so that the viewer can always see the current position in the actual game.
It's almost like the broadcast is about them rather than the actual game.

Re: Nakamura vs. Komodo
Is there any broadcast of Nakamura / Komodo games showing the list of moves made?
Sometimes it is hard to find out what analysis is and what the moves made

Re: Nakamura vs. Komodo
The game is broadcast in another section of chess.com and the broadcast (chess.com/tv) is a supplement. If you have a chess.com account, it's free to make one, you can view the gameGraham Banks wrote:The broadcast is a real pain.
