Rybka vs Benjamin II Draw Odds Match

Update:

Rybka has won the Benjamin Joel vs Rybka match 6-2. Benjamin was able to draw only two games and he eventually ran out of drawing ideas. Rybka's team won 6 games (including the last four with black!) and drew two games. Benjamin had whites in all the games.

Human beings, arise and awake! Benjamin is a strong Grandmaster and was in the Deep Blue team that beat Kasparov.

A fascinating battle is in progress. The Chess engine Rybka is playing Joel Benjamin. Benjamin gets white in every game in the 8 game match. He also gets another additional advantage in this man vs machine match. Even if he draws against the monster machine, it will be considered a win.

So far two games have been played. A seemingly drawn position in the first game turned out to be difficult to defend. Benjamin lost. In the second game, he simplified accurately to draw it, which means he won. So, the match is tied at 1-1.

The third game is in progress as we write this article.

In earlier matches with pawn odds against Benjamin and Jaan Ehlvest, Rybka was victorious three times.

More updates coming.
