Komodo 13 thinks like no other chess program. Inspired by AlphaZero, Komodo developers GM Larry Kaufman and Mark Lefler have reinvented their engine from scratch over the last two years. The result speaks for itself: The new Komodo 13 MCTS ("Monte Carlo Tree Search") searches for candidate moves in an incredibly innovative way and finds solutions most engines never see!
Game of the Week #408
Anish Giri is playing online training matches and the first of these was against his young compatriot Jorden van Foreest. These two Dutch top players are working together a lot these days and Jorden seems to learn a lot from this cooperation, as he managed to beat Anish 3-1. The fourth game had a really nice flow and is our game of the week.
The live show is free to watch, and available on-demand for ChessBase Premium accounts.
