You write interesting posts and sometimes I want to respond on your own forum topics - but unfortunately for some reason I find that I'm blocked on your pages.

I wonder why this is so?

Probably because i found something i didn't like - but now i will unblock you - no reason to stay that way as it seems you too made some interesting post that i like.

Chess is a game that has infinite moves. Someone thinking that they know what they're doing is someone that's dreaming. Even Carlsen would lose 9 times out of 10 against a decent program. The chess player is playing against his opponent, himself and infinity, it's a tough battle.

Carlsen would score better than that against a futuristic engine with acess to a 32 piece tablebase. Don't talk about what you don't understand.

Happend to me too, I am playing like a 2100 patzer sometimes (like today) when I should be closer to 2300

Ratings wise, stronger commercial engines nowadays are around 3300.

No they're not. They're 3300 in an entirely different rating pool that isn't comparable to FIDE ratings. They're not even remotely close to 3300 FIDE. In fact, 3300 FIDE is an impossible rating with current inflation because of the reason I've already stated.

Do your reserch better next time.

One chess site I belong to brought in a computer program that played 3 minute games. This site has top players like Nigel Short and various other GM's and IM's. Over about 150 games, not one person, including GM's beat or even tied the program, it won every single game. Garry Kasparov won a couple of games against IBM's Big Blue about 20 years ago, but these days computers are smarter and faster, they'd demolish any human opponent, probably 99% of the time.

You could probably say that if a GM or anyone else managed to beat a top-level computer program today it would be the greatest game a human has ever played. With the computer evaluating millions of possible positions every second, beating it would be close to a miracle. Although, I'd still like to see a Carlsen vs computer match, just to see how it goes. IBM could put up $1 million or so for the winner.

Then, when a software developer claims his engine is above 3300, I have no basis to doubt it... moreover when they clean the floor with GMs whenever they have the opportunity.

Your rating: 3300 Opponent's rating: 2840

Probability of winning: 0.933885938662804


Don't be a moron. Even if we automatically rule out Carlsen ever getting any kind of a result in any game ever as black or ever getting a win with White (which is already ridiculous), he still only needs to do is draw 1/4 of his games as White to stop ratings about 3300 as being mathematically impossible. If you think he can't do that then I have no time for you.

However you may respond to this, I can't see it being worth my time. Just see that you've been an idiot and move on.
