Yigor

Well, according to Stockfish 9+, white starts and wins cuz the evaluation of the initial position is +1.6 at depth d=35. blitz.pngpeshka.png

 

1 ply:

  • 1. Nc3 (+1.6) 
  • 1. e4 (+1.6)

2 plies:

  • 1. Nc3 e6 (+1.9)
  • 1. Nc3 c5 (+2.0)
  • 1. Nc3 Nc6 (+2.2)
  • 1. e4 e6 (+2.0)
  • 1. e4 Nc6 (+2.2)
  • 1. e4 c5 (+2.2)
  • 1. e4 b6 (+2.3)
  • 1. e4 c6 (+2.4)

Weird. What tweaks did you do so Stockfish thinks of giving 3 checks instead of checkmate?

Have you tried leaving Stockfish on for 24 hours to see if it calculates a forced mate? Lol

You should put Stockfish vs Stockfish and create your own Alpha Go but this time it will be called 

"Tria go".

Simple mentions are not forbidden. I didn't put neither external links nor advertising (I just answered a question). peshka.png

Is three check a forced win for white?

Absolutely (95%), the evaluation +1.6 at depth equal to 35 plies speaks for itself. blitz.pngpeshka.png

3 plies: 1. Nc3 e6 2. e4

 

 

SF9+ suggests: 2...Nc6, c6 (+1.2), Bb4, Nf6 (+1.3). explorer.png

for black nc6 or c5 is best in terms of surprise value and stuff
