After loss against a free engine , Strongest commercial Chess Engine "Rybka 4" face another tragedy.Ukrainian neurosurgery professor "Andriy Sliusarchuk" beat the world’s most powerful chess engine Rybka-4 in a blindfold match!!!
He won first game and draw in second.
But the main point is that : He is not a grondmaster!!He just wanted to show the audience that the potential of the human's brain is not fully used. Slyusarchuk is an amateur in chess playing – he is a neurosurgeon. 39-year-old MD specializes in the brain studying as well as improving memory technologies development. He knows by heart 20,000 books and 30 million digits of the pi number.
Sliusarchuk taught himself to play chess only eight month before the tournament !! and
had read about three thousand books about chess and after that It took neurosurgeon only 50 minutes to beat the machine!
See his first game:
Key point of game is that white try to pass to better endgame position
