Hi,
I gave the following 1937 Chekover study to Crafty 17.14 and Little Goliath
2000v2.9a for 10 minutes each. White to play and win
[D] 7n/7P/8/8/8/7Q/5ppR/K4bkn w - - 0 1
Crafty comes close and I'm sure given more time it would have cracked this ...
15-> 2:38 1.28 1. Kb2 Ng6 2. Kc3 Nh8 3. Kd4 Ng6 4.
Kc5 Nh8 5. Kd6 Ng6 6. Kc7 Nh8 7. Kd8
Nf7+ 8. Ke7 Nh8
16 3:01 ++ 1. Kb2!!
The surprise here to me is LG's poor showing:
15 124 48664 211726074 a1b2 h8f7 b2a1 f7h8 a1b2 h8f7 b2a1
The engine is all at sea and does not have a clue. A good example of the
advantage of new parag..whatever vs bean counting.
Cheers,
Jim
