The Spring-Online-Tournament 2004 (Frühlings-Online-Turniers 2004) is a fairly
popular user's tournament, but with some very strong competition this year.
Hydra plays with its official tournament operator Erdogan Günes as well as all
the other commercial chess engines as well as many amateurs. It is played on
ChessBase's PlayChess server.

In round 7, Chess Tiger played an extremely fantastic endgame against Deep
Junior 8. Deep Junior had white and used an 8-way Intel Xeon @ 2,8 GHz and
averaged roughly 5+ million np/s (it's evaluation was transmitted as "Deep
Junior 8: 19.6 ply; 5,314kN/s, (8 threads)"
Chess Tiger used my 2.5GHz Athlon XP single CPU system (averaged between 600-700
kn/s.)
Clearly, Junior's opening choice (in my opinion) was not beneficial (especially
to its style of play.) However, the game _appeared_ to be a draw around move.
(I say this because I need to go back and analyze this to be sure.)
Chess Tiger played a genius endgame and the game in general was one of the most
exciting computer chess games I've seen. Kudos to Chess Tiger 15.0 -- the
fairly-aged tiger still has a strong bite! :)
(I have modified settings for the ct.ini file that I cannot state until the
tournament is complete.) Though I have a fair number of test results to
indicate they are stronger for longer time controls, I have no clear proof that
they were (soley/at all) responsible for this strong endgame.
