Ke Jie said in his opinion on 19x19 komi 6.5 or 7.5 favors White.
Go theoretical considerations (see Joseki 2 - Strategy, chapter 4.4.1) estimate the per move value of the first move as ca. 14 points, so suggest the komi 7.
Pro game statistics, with the exception of Japanese 2 day games, suggest that 6.5~7.5 is closer to 50% than 5~6.
That seems consistent to MCTS's behavior? i.e. on the empty board, with komi 7.5, Black's win rate is usually between 46% and 48% meaning White is ahead.
No, this first of all means that MCT should study 7 more. -- robert jasiek _______________________________________________ Computer-go mailing list Computer-go@computer-go.org http://computer-go.org/mailman/listinfo/computer-go
