Final
Leela versus Houdini then.
Leela again seemed in control of the game and defended without any problems when she was with black and with white created some problems for Houdini but without anything much more than just applying some pressure where Houdini managed to draw eventually.
So after first 7 games were draws, last game(8) before tiebreaks, was a very sharp and double edged opening Leela decided to get into, where she played some nice speculative attacking moves trying to apply pressure to the weak Kingside so Houdini had to be very careful, even though Houdini had a very strong counterplay with 2 advanced passed Pawns on the Queenside so Leela should had that in mind too. But Houdini played 2 suboptimal moves that can maybe even characterized as mistakes or blunders, but not that obvious mistakes though and more analysis is needed as position is crazy complicated, and Leela grasped the chance to attack! The attack went great and Leela played some nice attacking Chess and she played move 31 playing fxe5 with a +3.16 score while Houdini was at +0.47 and Stockfish dev 176 threads (that was kibitzing the game) didn't see fxe5 and was preferring 31.Rf1 with +1.11. After Leela played 31.fxe5 and after 2 more moves having been played the 176 thread Stockfish jumped to +3.03 seeing indeed that Leela's move was sound and superb.
After that it was more or less over so Leela went on to win and win the final and the CUP!

If you let engines play a game, their moves are always INSANE. Like seriously, no human ever would go with his King all the way from e8 to a5 in mid-game 😂

[@muzzammilsuleiman7118]

Mr. Eto'ofish neither will any human castle after moving all his pawns all the way up, and then castle with the rook on the same file as your castled king🤣🤣

[@muzzammilsuleiman7118]

Yeaah, he just did all of that to piss him and throw him off guard which at the end he got away with

[@Buckship]

Petrosian did it in one game and won.

[@lucasmatsuoca]

nah, i do this often, and i get checkmated in the center xD

[@tome57a]

It seems as if Stockfish's evaluation was a bit too heavy on king safety and not heavy enough on acctive play on the kingside. In effect, it was reacting to a threat that did not yet exist. A decent human player might have considered getting the king out of the center, but not all the way to a5, which just took way too much time.

[@dontbeadebil5046]

6:20 I am pretty sure Stockfish has no hands. It's a fish after all.

[@organizationxiii2956]

Agadmator, you have written Leela Zhess Zero and Stokfish in description of the video!

[@HamedAbdulla]

Which database are you using?

[@rayfangrui]

Why did SF move the king to B7 instead for B6? Wouldn't that have saved a move?

How many moves is the opening?

[@maggiekw1802]

Can someone help me? at 10:30, why not te6xg4? I can only see leela respond with txtg4 or bishop to e7, after rf8xf7 - rxrg6 it should be equal or im i wrong?

[@maggiekw1802]

i found it, haha, checkmate in 1 after rf8xf7

[@chameeleon14]

The black king-walk in the early middle game reminds me of shogi (Japanese chess.) In shogi, there are strategies to protect the king by having the king take multiple moves to tuck it away in a safe place on the board.

Hi Agadmator, would you consider showing the game from 1992 Linares Kasparov - Karpov please, where Kasparov promotes the pawn to the pawn. Karpov demanding technical win for an illegal move but he didn't get it due to the fact that one couldn't win classical game by technical. Thank you

[@mathieuduchesneau8594]

At 15:11, Rxh5 seems way stronger (to me) than Rg1. Can someone explain to me why it is not the case?

[@kennethlovering1454]

Nice win by Leela! She needs some wins as she trailing with only 3 wins vs. Stockfish's 6.... all of Leela's wins came as white & Stockfish won 2 of his as black. My money is on Stockfish unless Leela learns a lot really quick.

[@Attlanttizz]

18:01 Advantage of 10 centipawn? That's just 1 pawn, no? Edit: correction, 10 centipawns would be 0.1 pawn. Thanks for the correction @Nowordformyname.

[@Attlanttizz]

@@ilteronatkorkmaz5346 Oh yeah, even lower :). I'm assuming he meant 10 pawns though.

[@th3-punish3r95]

Attlanttizz centipawns is used to determine what position is better just like the point of pieces, as an example, we all know a pawn is 1 point but a centipawn is like 0.1 point and when he said 10 centipawns he means that a person has an advantage of 0.10 points not even a full point, its used to precisely compare positions and who is better. I hope i helped, im bad at explaining

[@Askhat08]

Yes, tcec winning rule is 10+ eval from both engines for 4 moves.

You don’t have time to act Yo bishop’s under attack Now it’s far too late! Here comes rook g8!

[@kennethlovering1454]

#suggestion you have the moves for a Slav Defense game in the description for a game vs. Houdini

[@oterdverg]

...c5-c4 followed by ...a5-a4 by Stockfish in the opening made me cringe. After these moves Black can't put pressure on the white centre or queenside, while White obviously has a big advantage on the kingside, which means Black is strategically lost. This is one of a few examples where humans are still stronger than computers.

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

That's true, I had the same feeling, because computers evaluate the positions by centipawns, and not by strategical plannings

[@Jozarovschesschannel]

Very good comment

[@4xelchess905]

Yeah lack of opening bookk I guess.

[@oliverangermuller9827]

Right! I wanted to make the same comment. Strange decission by Stockfish to close the queenside. With also the center closed it is only White who can play on the kingside. No experienced human player would play like this.

[@bength1727]

Concur - c4 followed by a4 is a crime to chess
