Is there an analysis button somewhere that will give your probablility of winning based on the current board positions? This came to mind while reading someone else's post about people resigning early if they get down some material & play the board out in their head and realize there isn't much chance of getting back up. A tool like this would be great for newer players to be able to guage their overall board strength and more easily learn to recognize the point when a match is basically over. When playing the next 10 moves would not be much more than an exercise in futility just to hope that the other player makes some strangely catastrophic mistake to allow you to come back from defeat.
I'm assuming not, chess engines being the closest I could think of.
Would such a clever device exist I can almost promise you it would be banned here on chess.com.
