Go up one level in this thread





In the sixth and last game, Deep Blue used a knight sacrifice that few programs
will have considered or made. And it made some very human like moves all
throughout the 6 matchs so may be Gary Kasparov was right on his hints that
there may have been some cheating from the IBM team.

Pavel Blokhine


Pavel it is much better to take your program or different book openings that are
available and see for yourself.
The  move 8.Nxe6 is considered a book move.

I have spent many hours analysing these six games with several programs on
strong hardware. I have collected much data. I have several conclusions.
One conclusion is based on todays program search and todays hardware---I cannot
conclude that Deep Blue operators cheat.

Human like moves? There was also a reference to God-moves.

If you Pavel or anyone else can post a move that you think todays programs
cannot find, please do. If you have a move or a line that you think there was
human operator interference involved with Deep Blue---please post so that we may
compare to todays programs.

If you have a move that you think is very human please post.

What is your most amazing Deep Blue move Pavel?

I have collected several, I have my favorite all time Deep Blue move----I still
work on this one---it is so aggravating for me to study, but I will not give up
on this move. I have great faith in Deep Blue, she is very misunderstood.
I have looked for several years now a move that would prove Deep Blue strength
and depth, that is why this one move is my favorite. It would seem to me that
this one move would prove the depth and size of Deep Blue tree was very large
compared to todays programs.

Please post positions to back up your opinions and statements, so that others
can understand.
