Try again. 😉
Edit - Think about it for a second. The only difference in piece count between the player and the computer is that the player has 2 extra queens. What's the value of 2 queens? (It depends on whether you use the Reinfeld values or the Kaufman values.)
Originally posted by eatmybishop i have bought a chess program... cant remember what its called.. grandmaster i think... anyway.... just played it about 15 times, each time removing his rooks at the start and replacing my rooks with queens.... his rating about 2200+.... beaten me everytime...!
you gotta give credit to the program for that...
Fritz won't let me start with such a position as it is clearly impossible, unless I remove 2 pawns as well. When that is done it rates the stronger side as +17.75 so with the 2 extra pawns I would make that +19.75.
I played Fritz at its top level and it resigned after 4 moves.
I would expect to beat Kramnik with such an advantage.

It looks like Fritz is using something close to the Kaufman piece values, as the Kaufman values say that 2 queens are worth 19.5 pawns. I'm sure Fritz is adjusting the evaluation for positional considerations, also.
I'm guessing that Fritz has a setting that you can change to prevent Fritz from resigning.
Originally posted by tomtom232 Of course! with the conditions he stated you could make almost any moves during the game like sacking a couple queens for an attack and still be winning... yet he looses every time!
what you talking about...? dont come on here with your crude jibes... you play the engine then... you dont even know what one i'm talking about so how the hell can you judge the program's abilities....
when was the last time you played a gm... never... cos they wont play you cos you think they're your friends
Originally posted by eatmybishop yet i have a higher rating than you... strange
apology accepted
I wouldn't be too sure of yourself (or full of yourself) as ratings don't mean too much when there is only a 100 point difference at our level plus I am at 1500 but playing people 1650+
if you come on here again making your cheap little remarks i'm gonna report you.... and dont do the usualy oh look what he's done at the forums... kids playground behaviour... if you cant answer a simple point then dont bother at all.... i wonder if you would still make the same comment if we were face to face and i made the same remark.... oh course not.... so dont hide behind your screen and make your cheap comments at me now... if you do it again your reported so go back to your little cheap hole and stay there

Well I can't speak for him but I have played a few GM's in my time and even being down a piece is tough for a GM...the scenario you brought up is completely ludicrous.
As for you being "full of yourself" as tomtom pointed out...I agree.
Instead of playing completely idiotic setup positions with your program why don't you try and beat someone with a high rating here...would definetly help your game more then playing Dora the Exporer chess in fantasy land.
