Yes i am also little worry about game against Raptor.
Also the first move in the opening with 1. a3 shows to play without normal opening book moves, hope to win a game by this way.
Good luck to the last rounds.

...but couldn't manage to convert the pawn advantage to a won endgame. That seemed to be the theme for Hiarcs this year: it also had a strong advantage against The Baron but couldn't convert, and pushed too hard against Raptor letting a long equal game slip away. (Fantastic game against Jonny though.)herO wrote:Hiarcs is winning after 48 moves against Ginkgo engine

This video is also a reminder that this is an operator championship as much as a computer championship. It looks like Jonny was doing it old-school, typing in the algebraic moves. For these blitz games, do the programs have to choose their time controls conservatively to avoid flagging, or are they able to sync automatically to the official reference digital clock?
