    Komodo 3 Evaluation Bug

    While examining a recent Blitz game I played on the Internet I discovered what appears to be a bug in Komodo 3’s evaluation. In the first position it says after 51..Qg7 52,Qxg7# Black is winning and the evaluation is “-+” 1998 and in the second position it also says Black is winning and gives a crazy evaluation score.


    I have seen this happen before with this engine; I have no idea why this happens, but when I see things like this it makes me nervous…can I trust its evaluation at all?!

      The author has acknowledged that there are still bugs in his program. I suppose these will be fixed when the MP version comes out. Maybe lol
