GM Joel Benjamin won the match against Leela 4.5 to 3.5

 


Today we are posting the final two games of the match, both of which ended in a draw. As you can observe, the power of chess engines is immense, and despite having a knight advantage, the grandmaster narrowly won the match.

LeelaKnightOdds configuration 
The LeelaKnightOdds bot will be using the latest version of the specialized odds network trained both for knight and for rook odds which is used since the knight odds blitz match with GM Awonder Liang in December 2024. It will search 20000 nodes per move, and use the opening book curated by GM Larry Kaufman based on the preferences of the odds net and the performance against human players.
