Houdini 3 vs Stockfish 120413 - the big game!

Sort:
ElKitch

At this time the last game of round 4 is being played in the nTCEC tournament. The best engines play long games in a round robin.

The developer version of Stockfish does remarkably well against Houdini 3 and in the last game they play eachother. A win (with black though) would place Stockfish on top!
