Here is the game played against the Little Chess Partner. The online version plays around 2000 ELO on fast PCs, maybe better. I was running Little Chess Partner on AMD Athlon(TM) 4800+ 62x2 Processor, with 2 Gb RAM. Program was set for 10 seconds fixed time search. While playing Little Chess Partner I discovered a few week spots that can be used by one against this program. I will write about that in the next article. Okay, let's take a look at the position itself. I was playing black.
The winning line is 5...Qh3 threatening Qh1 mate. The only defense is 6.Qg2. But now: 6...Rg6 - white queen is pinned and cannot capture black's queen. So, 7.Qxg6 fxg6 and white eventually lost:
Playing The Little Chess Partner helps to improve the game overall, since the program is pretty strong. |
