Re: Playing the endgame like a boss !!
What the hell is this thing ? is lc0 really played so bad at the end ?
Re: Playing the endgame like a boss !!
Playing bad? Lc0 won the game with Lc0's epic trolling endgame play. Promoting to a rook, sacing the bishop. Sweet.

E4-E5 Nf3 F5?!.....Your kidding..Right? Result is meaningless...How did Stockfish exactly get one pawn down?
Re: Playing the endgame like a boss !!
Why is it doing that when it has tablebases?
Tablebases years ago made normal engines do weird things, but not like this.

Re: Playing the endgame like a boss !!
It certainly would not play like this even if it had only 3-men EGT (as KRK would be amongst those). This is just what you get if you train the engine to recognize a certain win, but do not train it how to make progress in cashing it. It is equally happy with any KRK position, they are all 100% certain wins. So the pieces just diffuse aimlessly over the board.

CCC claim they use 7-man Syzygy TBs.
Wonder if there's some error somewhere.

Re: Playing the endgame like a boss !!
That CCC uses 7-men EGT doesn't mean that this particular engine supports uses EGT. Obviously CCC was not using the EGT to adjudicate.
Re: Playing the endgame like a boss !!
The sad truth is that there are just way too many games like that with Lc0 and while in this case the end result was still a win for Lc0 … on many occasions there is a draw or even a loss, in what was a winning position. It is behaviour like this that makes Lc0 useless as a stand alone chess engine to analyse with. This needs to be fixed pronto!
