Featured is an excellent chess game between Stockfish (3724) and LCZero (3686) from Game 100 of the TCEC Season 28 Superfinal. The opening is a King’s Indian Defense, Averbakh Variation, with play beginning after 10…Bd7. The engines castle on opposite sides and launch attacks toward the enemy king. Leela advances pawns on both wings and lines up its major pieces on the b-file by move 26, threatening to break through. At this critical moment, Stockfish has a fantastic resource, which will either buy time to attack Leela’s king or force Leela to sacrifice material. This was a fitting conclusion to the match, which Stockfish dominated, winning 57.5–42.5. Stockfish is the Superfinal Champion once more, remaining King!
