Go up one level in this thread


1)I believe that the difference between Gambittiger and the default version of
tiger is the fact that Gambit has bigger positional scores.

There is no reason for a big story to explain what happens.
The word evaluation function is enough to explain what happens.


2)I do not think that is is a new paradigm.

Gambittiger only have more cases of big positional scores and have them in cases
of king attack(I like it but the idea of having big positional scores is not
something new in chess programs).


Here is an example of big positional score of crafty.
[D]8/7K/8/8/7R/ppk5/8/8 w - - 0 1

The score of Crafty17.11 with no tablebases in depth 1 is 5.26 pawns for black.

Crafty does not see  promotion of black at depth 1 and counting material will
tell you an advantage for white.

It only proves that Crafty has big positional scores in some cases.
