I loved this crazy game demonstrating the power of 4(!) connected passed pawns against an unprotected black king (as if you didn't know that already 😉 ) https://youtu.be/HDSOyOUaUCI

#chess #siliconroad #reengineeringtheclassics #tcec #c960 In our first look at the TCEC C960 event, I have found that precious rarity for you... a great Leela game 😮 Leela dazzles with the whole range of engine skills, exploiting the unusual setup of the pieces to reach a position in which its light-squared bishop is much more active than Marvin's, then tricking Marvin into grabbing a rook's pawn and using the newly-opened file to develop pressure against Black's king! https://youtu.be/ChNuj0gtNWM
