Mar-06-07  csmath: Fine example of computer chess by Singh. :-) How did he achieve this using some kind of device is a good question. No wonder they keep on claiming he is a cheater, there is a little doubt for me he definitely is one. Good game though. By computer of course. Poor Koneru.

If you make such claims, you should back it up with some analysis, or some indication of what aspects of the game you consider 'computer chess'.

Mar-07-07  Akavall: <csmath> What exactly is so unhuman about this game?

According to Rybka, it is =0.00 after 41...Rb4. This means that Koneru played slightly better than a progroam during this part of the game?

After that she started to play passively and Singh punished her for it, and his moves are very normal. Attacking weak pawns on the king's side is fairly standard.

Do you think 45. Nxf5 was hard to see? I think this is easy to see that this move is winning and Rybka here likes 45. Nb5+ better anyway. 45. Nxf5 is very human was to continue.

What is here that 2395 player couldn't see?

Mar-07-07  whatthefat: <Akavall>

All good points.

<Do you think 45. Nxf5 was hard to see? I think this is easy to see that this move is winning and Rybka here likes 45. Nb5+ better anyway. 45. Nxf5 is very human was to continue.>

I agree that 45.Nxf5 catches the human eye more easily than 45.Nb5+.

Mar-07-07  whatthefat: <csmath>

Typical arrogance from you. If you make arguments without a factual basis, expect to be refuted.

What entitles you to make this assessment: <Fine example of computer chess by Singh>? By the same logic, am I to assume you're as strong as Fritz then?

Mar-07-07  Akavall: It seemed that maybe <csmath> had some points to support his claim, I guess he doesn't have any.
Mar-07-07  whatthefat: <csmath>

I'm honestly not too bothered if you feel the need to parachute out of the discussion at this point. Maybe you can come back when you've actually analyzed the game. Explaining how Humpy held 'Fritz' to a 0.00 eval to the 41st move might be a nice start.

Mar-07-07  MORPHY MARVELLOUS: I think some people here need to start using their heads. Singh is a strong player so he does not need the use of a comp every move. only on the important ones he uses the help of a comp. He has become a master at cheating. his close room mate(friend) was found to be cheating, in recent tournement with everyone watching he has played poorly, reflecting his rating previous to his amazing improvement in chess. It doesnt take a genius to figure out he is a cheat, only a moron will give him the benefit of the doubt.
Mar-08-07  whatthefat: Interesting that <csmath>'s posts vanished. Perhaps he wasn't too proud of them.
Mar-08-07  square dance: im guessing cg.com wasnt too proud of them, or my reply. ;-)
