Greetings!
A friend sent me this video of his game with a recent version of Stockfish running on SCID.
He then emailed to ask me “what the hell is going on?”

Great anecdote, Greg! That's almost as bad as when Alekhine, in a drunken stupor, switched envelopes durung WWII.fourthirty wrote:Stockfish obviously cast a Pawnus Appearitus spell.
I recall that Alekhine did the same after drinking a pint of brandy during the 1934 match with Bogoljubov.
Speaking of bloopers, I owe Stockfish a huge apology. My friend that had that anomalous game later wrote to explain that he was playing a program called "Chess King".
