Subject: Rybka vs GetClub Easy Level.
Today a few thinks were corrected at GetClub. And after that I played
a game between GetClub & Rybka at hard level.

Rybka took 46 moves to win the game. In the opening GetClub lost a
pawn for nothing.

On analyzing with computer I find that was correct move. Still getclub
was a pawn down.

So you can see that Easy Level was able to give a good fight till 46
moves.

What were the moves that were weak and should be avoided by GetClub?

When you say a move is bad also tell how much penalty should be given
to that move.

You are playing with Higher Level "Normal"

Normal Level thinks for 5 min - 15 min / move.

You should play with Easy Level which plays faster.

Easy Level: 1-2 min / move.

If you wish to close that game tell me your username and I will remove
your game So that you can start a new game with Easy Level.

Or if you wish you may continue the game. But then Normal Level thinks
for 5-10 min on some moves.

I believe the simplest explanation for this sort of
"deep think" is that some crude chess programs
use all the time they have "saved" while in book,
on their first move out of book. And while it is
difficult to imagine the GetClub program staying
"in book" clear up to move six, it is possible.

Sanny's program is so slow that it is best to do
other things while the program is cranking away;
there is an annoying sound which will alert you
when it is your turn to move, and rest assured,
if you do not get back to your computer for some
time it will *not* make any significant difference
to the quality of GetClub's play.

Interestingly, many human players will do much
the same thing-- spending an inordinate amount
of time on the first move out of book, after having
been playing just by rote.

I tried playing a game against the "Normal" level (advertised as 1 to

I was Black:

1. e4 e6
2. d4 d5
3. Nc3 Nf6
4. e5 Nd7
5. Nf3 c5
6. Bg5 Qb6

At this point GetClub went into a deep think and after ten minutes or

Today Opening & Middle game of GetClub was made stronger by adding few
new rules.

So you will find it difficult to take advantage in Opening.

However when End Game comes GetClub will play badly as it do not know
how to win in End Games.

Play with Beginner Level if you are weak player.

If you are strong player and looking for a good challenge try playing
with Easy Level.

Watson's quite good on opening books, usually, both as a writer and
reviewer. Personally, the book would not interest me. I'm a Sicilian
player, so I'd never allow the Scotch as Black. I tried it as White in
a postal game or two in the early 1980s, but only in the 4.Bc4 gambit
form, in which 4...Qh4 isn't possible.

I sometimes play the 2 ... e5 variation of Nimzovich's Defense, so
I'm always on the watch for something clever against the Scotch, but I
don't want to make it my life's quest; the Gutman book seemed
overkill. The 4 ... Qh4 line has some advantages, though -- without
going into the gambit lines, how can White avoid it?

By offering 4. c3 instead of the tame recapture 4. Nxd4. =)

Yes, as I mentioned, by going into one of the gambit lines, White can
avoid it, and if both players welcome the double-edged nature of the
following play, it's a win-win situation (until somebody loses).
Better chance a slugfest than a squeeze, IMO.

have considered Black's defensive task too difficult."

GM Lev Gutman wrote a rather large book on this variation. Curious, I
picked it up for about 4 bucks on e-bay some time ago, but it just
sits on my shelf -- too much work to invest in this oddball variation.
After I posted, I did a little searching:

Watson gave it a relatively good review:

Actually this line is all book to this point. It's a very old line
of the Scotch Opening called the Pulling Counterattack, named for the
English player Wellington Pulling (1812-1866), who played it in the
1830s. It is not considered best, however. The other main alternatives
to 4...Qh4, and probably better, are 4...Nf6 and 4...Bc5.

Here is another spice match between Rybka & GetClub.

GetClub got a Bishop for Rook & Pawn. And Rybka easily get the Queen
with its extra pawn. Winning the game Quickly in 36 moves.

In this game GetClub lost a pawn and Rook for Bishop. GetClub had no
way to avoid that exchange and it was forced to down by 2 points.

Can you see any way GetClub had survived?

This move, ...d6, should be removed from the
opening book, as it is inferior to such alternatives
as ...Nf6 and ...Nc6.

This is a bad move; Black ought to be develop-
ing all his pieces and castling to safety, not
hopping about the board aimlessly with any one
piece.

The fact that the GetClub program managed
to get castled -- a rarity of sorts -- explains in
part why it took Rybka so long to polish it off.

What "should be avoided" by GetClub is any
contest against Rybka which does not involve
*at least* Knight odds.

However, the vast chasm between the two
programs does have its advantages; for
instance, you can test the GC program and
just assume that Rybka's analysis is "perfect",
since in 99.999% of cases, the GC program
will not stumble upon one of the exceptions
where GC's "best move" really is better than
Rybka's.

In the very limited work I've done, it appears
that nearly every commercial chess engine
gets beaten like carrots-- except the very few
which are, like Rybka, *superb* with tactics.
As we have seen, the GetClub program is
one of the worst chess programs known to
man, when it comes to tactics.

No, it didn't. This game was lost on the move 4...Ng4. The rest is

I particularly enjoyed the five useless rook moves (moves 21, 24, 25,

These two sentences tell me everything I need to know about how this
engine is being programmed. At this rate, it should take roughly
47,000 years for you to individually program every move that should be
avoided.

Have fun!

Ng4 was played to advance Knight to Center. And attack the Whites
King. But white managed to kick the knight back by playing h3.

What were the moves that were weak and should be avoided by GetClub?

When you say a move is bad also tell how much penalty should be given
to that move.

Hmmm, only about 1.5 months of experience here, but how is Ng4 centralizing
the knight? You're actually moving it farther to the side of the board and
you no longer attack e4. You now attack e5, but so does Nc6. The only other
squares you now attack are ones deep in White's territory and too
well-defended this early in the game, not to mention Ng4 is easily chased
away (as was done) since White hasn't castled yet and it isn't a big deal
that he loosens his pawn structure on that side.

I did analysid with computer and found 6th move by black giving a pawn
is correct move.

6. Nf3-g5{24} d6-d5{26}

And > > 4. Bf1-c4{10} Nf6-g4{32}

Ng4 at 4th move was wrong as It was out of Opening Book.

I have added this opening to the Program so next time Rybka plays
these moves it will play Book moves.
