Play Magnus app almost beated Deep Hiarcs 14 WCSC

Post by herO »

I played against Magnus App (age 25) with Deep Hiarcs 14 WCSC many times. Hiarcs often wins against Magnus App, but there were also a lot of draws, because Hiarcs many times plays openings which are static from the beginning to the end (it gets into closed position, or exchange all his important pieces so draw is unavoidable in the endgame). Well Hiarcs got into worse position once before, but it was only up to 100 centipawns and Hiarcs was able to achieve a draw.

But this time Hiarcs get again into static position and didn't know "what to do". Hiarcs position was getting worse and worse. Hiarcs was almost beated by much much weaker engine. Luckily Hiarcs was able to recover and get a draw.

Do you think Magnus is going to beat Hiaracs any time soon or draw is the best he can get with the engine it has?
e2-e4!
