I reported earlier that Lazarus wins as white with 8.5 komi. Out of 256 games the win percentage was 53.9 percent.
I tripled the level and ran off 179 games. Now BLACK wins by 54.2 percent. 179 is not enough games, but it appears to be a turnaround. Of course black SHOULD be winning 100 percent of the games at that komi. - Don On Tue, 2006-10-17 at 14:13 -0700, Christoph Birk wrote: > On Tue, 17 Oct 2006, Don Dailey wrote: > > It's interesting that (relatively) strong players are still losing games > > with both colors, despite the 8.5 komi. > > I am not suprised to see a strong bias (2:1) toward WHITE with > komi=8.5 since only a (near) perfect player can take full advantage > of moving first. > > Christoph > > _______________________________________________ > computer-go mailing list > [email protected] > http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/ _______________________________________________ computer-go mailing list [email protected] http://www.computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go/
