Leela Chess Zero defeated Stockfish with a score of 106-94 in the final of the 13th Chess.com Computer Chess Championship that finished earlier this week. The match, played on the Chess.com server, saw 26 decisive games.

The final was the culmination of a long event that started on March 10, 2020, and consisted of five stages:

• Pentagonals (three minutes + two seconds increment): five engines per pool, top two advance
• Triangular (three minutes + two seconds increment): three third-place finishers from pentagonals; winner advances
• Heptagonal (five minutes + three seconds increment): seven engines, top four advance
• Semifinals (10 minutes + three seconds increment): four engines, top two advance
• Finals (15 minutes + five seconds increment): match between two engines

We’ve already seen one amazing endgame from the semifinals which featured Leela Chess Zero (Lc0), Stockfish, Leelenstein, and Komodo). Eventually, Lc0 and Stockfish made it to the finals which took place April 8-14.

The final consisted of a match of 200 games, played consecutively, with a time control of 15 minutes with a five-second increment. Book moves were used with variations of different lengths; sometimes only one move was given per side, sometimes 10 or a bit more.

Full 6-man and Syzygy 7-man tablebases were used, and games were played until mate or draw by threefold repetition, stalemate, 50-move rule, or adjudication.
