Sargon 3 pretty much controlled the game but had let a couple of better opportunities slip. Now in the endgame Sargon 3 has 2 Bishops against Chess Player 2150's Rook and a pawn. The position favors Black and Sargon 3 plays the Endgame well to win.

Novag Scorpio really messed up the opening and finds itself losing its Bishop for two pawns after the next move 14. h4

Final Position

Cyrus could not capitalize its early advantage and Novag Scorpio scrapes by with a draw through move repetition.

Quite an easy win really for DOSBox Grandmaster.

Well I bit the bullet and ordered Millennium Chess Genius Pro this morning. I am not sure why really after having played the London program 100's of times with Mephisto 68000, 86020, Mephisto TM, Revelation, MCG. And yet still struggling to enjoy London's play style.

So much for my last year's resolution to never ever buy another London program..... :roll:

Well we have some good news and some bad news.... Millennium will be releasing a beautiful wooden board with a separate module in April....yes... with another Lang program similar to the CGP.

Millennium tells us that the module can be updated through a USB cable (or blue tooth?) and that additional, non-Genius or London, programs will be available.

You can take a look here: https://www.schachversand.de/startneu2.htm

There goes the new year's resolution....again. :wink:

Here is game 8 of Round 6. Novag Constellation Quattro versus DOSBox Siberian 2.15

[Event "Major Swiss Comp. Chess League - Div. 4"]

Novag Constellation Quattro showed the better endgame skills starting from the above position. Siberian 2.15 messed up by losing central balance by needlessly advancing its h-pawn.

41. Kf1 Kd6 42. Ke2 Ke6 43. Kd3 Kd7 44. Ke3 h6 45. Kd3 h5 46. Kd4 Kd6 47. h4 Kd7 48. Kd5 Ke7 49. Kc5 Kd7 50. Kb6 Kd6 51. Kxa6 Kc6 52. Ka5 Kc7 53. Kxb5 Kb7 54. a4 Kc7 55. Ka6 Kb8 56. Kb6 Kc8 57. Ka7 Kd8 58. b5 Ke7 59. b6 Kf8 60. b7 Kg7 61. b8=Q Kf7 1-0

Final Position

[fen]1Q6/K4k2/6p1/5p1p/P4P1P/5P2/5P2/8 w - - 0 62[/fen]

3.5 points out of 6 games is not bad for the low rated dedicated chess computer.
