Normally the programs are tested WITH Tablebases. But I wanted to know how they fight WITHOUT the Nalimov's. Therefore I started an experiment with the new Shredder (a very good endgame player): 20 rapid games against 10 Top's with the ten admitted endgame test positions of John Nunn. 8/1ppr1kp1/p1p4p/8/8/5P2/PPP1RKPP/8 w - - 0 1 8/1pk3pp/p7/3p1p2/3K4/6P1/PP2PP1P/8 b - - 0 1 2q5/8/6Q1/8/1P3k2/8/1K6/8 w - - 0 1 8/4k3/r4pp1/pR6/P4KP1/5P2/8/8 w - - 0 1 8/p1p1k3/1p1p2p1/3Pq2p/2P1P3/1P3QPK/P7/8 w - - 0 1 8/p3ppk1/1p4pp/3nN3/6PP/1P3P2/P3PK2/8 w - - 0 1 7k/pp4pp/2n5/8/8/P7/1P4PP/2K1B3 b - - 0 1 8/8/p4Bp1/1pPb2P1/1P2kp2/P7/5K2/8 w - - 0 1 8/4k3/p1B4p/2K5/1P4bP/8/8/8 b - - 0 1 3R4/1p6/2b5/2P1k2p/p3p2P/P6r/1P2KB2/8 b - - 0 1 The results are partly surprising...
