Subject: 1-0 The Miracle of the Little Beast CTP 14.9 vs SJeng 12.11

Author: Jorge Pichard

Date: 18:43:08 04/06/02


SJeng 12.11 is playing without TB to make it fair since Chess Tiger 14.9 doesn't
use TB. Even with TB SJeng would have lost this game regardless. Uri is right
this SJeng is a tought opponent with an estimated rating by its author close to
2400 in standard time control.2. What is Sjeng's status ?

PS: Simply consider this a Pearl of a game, Simply an Amazing Performance!


It has successfully beaten players rated over 2500 points, including several
titled GM's and IM's. One version of Sjeng even attained the first place in the
crazyhouse players list on the Internet Chess Club (ICC), and the first place on
the Free Internet Chess Server (FICS). Its crazyhouse rating currently
fluctuates around 2300 points.
Sjeng is probably a bit weaker in bughouse than it is in crazyhouse. Most
Sjeng's on the FICS have a rating of about 2000 points in bughouse, with a top
of over 2200 points.

For standard chess, Sjeng's rating is probably about 2400 ELO. In suicide and
losers chess Sjeng beats all but the very best humans, and will beat
non-specialized programs easily.
