AW: The 64-cup
Good morning all, wish you a happy weekend!
 Second semifinal match is CXG Super Enterprise vs Fidelity Designer Mach III Master 2265. Theoretical odds are 89 % in favor of the Spracklen program, leveraging a rather fast 68000 16-biter at 16Mhz, versus a rather modest 6301Y running at 2Mhz. The first game with the Danielsen's 16K program playing as White turns into a one-way fight starting from move #24, when the Super Entreprise badly neglects its own King safety. The revenge game is surprisingly a draw  , both devices agreeing a 3-fold position repetition as soon as move #19. Maybe the Mach III was aware a draw was enough to enter the final? Well, we all know it cannot be so, therefore it is a bit deceptive from the Designer Mach III. On another hand, it is an achievement from the Super Enterprise: it will gain some CElo points in my private ranking...

AW: The 64-cup
Good morning,
Now the Consolation cup final match is ready to be played: Saitek Turbo King II vs Fidelity Designer Mach III Master 2265. Theoretical odds are 71 to 29 in favor of the Spracklen program. To my opinion, the first game with the Designer Mach III playing the dark side is the "game of the cup"! What an attacker the Mach III can be! It gets out of the opening phase with the Bishops pair, whilst the Turbo King will play with a pair of Knights. Moreover, check the position after move #22: all Mach III long range guns (Queen, both Rooks and both Bishops) are firing at White's position! The Turbo King curls up for defense, but cannot stand such a wild pressure for long. The final mate sequence is worth seeing: the Designer Mach III sacrifices its two Bishops in a row, to get the ennemy King stark naked in the middle of nowhere! The revenge game is not that enthusiasming. It has been globally balanced, with a long boring endgame with one Pawn advantage for the Turbo King. I forced myself to keep on the game playing; according to my analysis engine there were some opportunities for the Turbo King to break through, but both devices were unable to spot these, and the game ends in a deserved draw. 1.5 to 0.5 is therefore the final score, close to the theoretically expected one.
