Risarcimento Padova wins Italian Team Championship
5/2/2012 – If you look at the final results you will see that the first four places in this seven-round event were occupied in exactly their seeding order. So the Elo system does actually work. The winners, with 13/14 match points, fielded GMs Caruana, Nakamura, Georgiev, Efimov and Godena, the runners up Datagest Pesaro had GMs Sutovsky, Brunello, Vocaturo and Marin. Illustrated report.
Last year Komodo won the world championship title on two occasions and can call itself "2019 World Computer Chess Champion" and "2019 World Chess Software Champion". And the current Komodo 14 has been clearly improved over its predecessor!
