Thanks for accepting my challenge :smile:, good luck and have fun, that's what matters. I have picked the black pieces, so you can move.

i for one will watch this game with interest.
Parent - By Christian Packi (****) [de] Date 2010-10-01 23:09
Oh boy, where did I get myself into! :surprised:

Let me think about what I'm going to play first. Fyi I know you're trying to draw with black first and then crush me with white. Although you might play for a win even with black against me. :wink:

Tbh I just played what I usually play. No need to step on unknown territory.

as you have noticed,i am an attacking player and play a different game.when i play team games it drives me crackers when these moves are made eg 1.Nf3 however this is all part of the fun.

you play to many games Uly.dont worry,and SF is not as good as Rybka esp on big HW.however i agree it does provide alternative lines to look at.bit like i used to use engine X.i think you may have a real battle on your hands here.have fun.:neutral:

Parent - - By TheHug (Bronze) [us] Date 2010-10-05 04:54
I can agree with you National on that SF is not as good at higher hardware. But if you mix its ideas with other engines you can come up some interesting lines. You can ask Vytron I came up with a line that is very crazy yet very sound. I would be surprised if you could have seen my idea. Of course to find the "good" interesting lines you have to use multiple engines.
Parent - - By NATIONAL12 (Gold) [gb] Date 2010-10-05 22:46
i agree and sometimes test your own ideas,which i find sometimes work.:smile:

>you play to many games Uly


But sometimes it is critical that I do it, for instance in my games against ppipper and Mark Elridge that I won, I made heavy use of a new technique that I developed in another concurrent game, had I played those games sequentially instead of simultaneously, I wouldn't have learned that in time and Mark and ppipper would have drawn their games against me.

The same goes for new released engines that I can use immediately in all of my ongoing games, so let's say playing this many games is part of the fun. Of course sometimes I have too many games going on, but right now I'm fine, I didn't manage to look at any of my games at Saturday or Sunday because I was busy IRL, but that would have happened even if I just had a single game going.

Also, I'm very suspect that Christian and me are very afraid of each other! :smile:

In order to speed things up I'm giving some conditionals.

if Bc7 then e4

and if dxe4 then Nxe4

interesting game.its the sort of white position i like to play although no doubt defensible by black,white has the easier game.:smile:
Parent - - By Uly (Gold) [mx] Date 2010-10-10 02:03
Well, I'm happy with my position, though my chances of winning are probably 0, I've only won as black games where my opponents played some odd move in the opening at one point and I took advantage of it, here Christian didn't let a small space of breathing air for that, but the position seems simplified enough that I don't think I'll run into trouble, let's see how it goes.

I'm going to accept the first conditional since it's forced, but I'm still unsure of capturing the pawn, there's plenty of options.

1. Nf3 Nf6 2. d4 e6 3. c4 d5 4. Nc3 c6 5. Bg5 h6 6. Bxf6 Qxf6 7. e3 Bd6 8. Bd3 O-O 9. O-O Qe7 10. c5 Bc7 11. e4

My turn again.

Well sometimes if you know what method your opponent is using. You can find a hole in it if you know what to look for. In this case that would be almost impossible to do because Vytron has so many methods. The other way which is fun to do. Is find a move that engines do not expected to come and make a position unclear and find the stocking move at the end to give you advantage. The latter idea is not so easily to do. I use many engines (between 15 to 20) to find the moves. Another thing about the latter is to have good chess knowledge.

> What needs to happen for you to make a wrong move?


I'll be frank, I'm a very lousy patzer, which means I'm strongly dependent on engines. That is, if ALL engines love a position I'll go for it, no matter what analysis method I use, all my methods run about that idea (maximizing evaluation and trying to make sure I could win the position/at least draw from it).

So, to beat me, you just have to reach a deep position that no engine understands, and you'll almost have guaranteed that I won't understand it either. Basically, a position that looks like this on infinite analysis:

-0.60
-0.40
-0.52
-0.40
-0.20
-0.24
-0.10
0.00
0.00
0.04
0.16
0.00
0.30
0.50

As long as that position is deep, I have no useful method to avoid it, I look relatively shallow at positions, so I'd probably just "prune" that position and think "Oh, the position is -0.24, he's not going to play it as white", then when we're on it, you already have a great advantage.
