Hello Chess Friends,


     On this news page,     You can read my postings for B/N CS XXVI / Blitz


02.03.2024:Here are the latest results and after checking more closely, we may expectEverything in the next new updates, but on the other hand I admit also thatHCan, DON, SENTINEL etc. are as BEAST, really very dangerous books!Actually in ongoing championship all books are dangerous and as we see,Almost all of them are very close in points..Note also that the Champion/sTitle will be determined after 700 games (per player)..that means soon...)And without to not mention this I can't too all of current players are as realGladiators, no fear, no complexes... and fighting to the last drop of blood!And as usual, it's my BIG pleasure to organize these kind of exciting toursBtw, for more fair cond..(as in recent tests) All played without Eng learningBe aware too (for anyone missed) later I hope to run another new tourneyWith the highest Top 8 books, which will be under more serious conditions
     02.03.2024:     In case of interest to submit a book, registrations acceptable Contact     Be aware of that 2 (two) opening books are allowed by same author     Sure, both books should be different in playing style (to each other)
     Important Note (in case of interest...)     Please specify the engine/s for your book/s..because In this new tour:     All books are planning to be played by Authors choice and don't forget     To include suggested Settings in Book's folder..thank you in advance     Otherwise, it's complicated to check, save etc. each email's posting...     And here are the qualified Top engines, where you can choose from:
   # PLAYER                :  RATING  POINTS    GAMES  (%)   1 SF-PB 080124          :  3801.6   401.5     800    50   2 Incognito 5 Pro       :  3800.8   400.5     800    50   3 Brainlearn 27         :  3800.8   400.5     800    50   4 Polyfish 140124       :  3800.4   400.0     800    50   5 CoolIris 11.80        :  3800.4   400.0     800    50   6 Raid v3.4             :  3800.4   400.0     800    50   7 Eman 9.90             :  3800.0   399.5     800    50   8 ShashChess 34.6       :  3799.6   399.0     800    50
More Details:The above strength test is played under same tournament's conditionsNote that all Engines are played without Eng learning, as main reason:  Simply for more fair conditions...otherwise, the learned Exp files may   Play as serious advantage over next entries, e.g in all latest tours,tests:  Some of the participants are entered later and played in Gauntlet mode• All matches are played with new Balsa ver (based on 1450+ openings)  And for more fair cond. each of used opening line is repeated as twice• Current overall draw - ratio: (based on 3600 games) is very high: 99%• As usual, all of the strength games are available (in PGN): Download
