TCEC S29 division P started

Post by Jouni »

Interesting to see how Torch and Reckless fare against LCZero. That 5000 W(!) monster already won Torch. Here https://tcec-chess.com/#div=p&game=2&season=29 .

Based on 22 completed games (out of 224), and a likely draw between Stockfish and Lc0, it looks like:

1. The two promoted engines: Reckless and Torch will probably stay up in Premier Division;

2. Berserk and Integral will be demoted;

3. Stockfish and Lc0 will make it to the finals;

4. Plenty Chess will finish in 3rd place.
