Wrong advice by engine in Albins Countergambit?
Sort:
The first inaccuracy is to use an engine to assess an opening at move 4.
Engines are clueless at openings, at least so soon.
Oh ok, I didn't know this.
IM Poucin makes a good point, but whenever you use an engine, you have to realize that the engine's evaluation can change the longer it analyzes. The move it calls best after 10 seconds may slip to third or fourth choice after 3o seconds more analysis. So the Chess.com computer may cut of it's analysis after a certain number of plies. At that point, the top choice may have been Ne7, or a5. After a longer think, Nc6 would have been the first choice,
Also, you can safely ignore small differences in evaluation. The fact that Stockfish thinks some move evaluates as 0.18 more than another move is meaningless

Hey guys,
so I just played this line:
d4 d5 c4 e5 cxe5 d4 a3
and the engine from chess.com says that nc6 is an inaccuracy, while it is actually the move that Stockfish 10 suggests. How is it possible that the chess.com engine differs so much?
