The victory of Komodo is the result of a little magic in the end-game:

DeepSaros_eXp - Komodo-TCEC

FEN: 2R5/3r3k/1p1p3p/1n1Pp3/1PN1Pp2/5P1b/5K1P/4N3 w - - 0 46

46.Ra8?! 
It looks good, but the abandonment of the line "c" will prove fatal.

46... Rc7!
Komodo has understood everything!

47.Nxb6 Rc1 48.Ra5 Nd4!

After 48... Nd4!

Black now easily recover the sacrificed pawn, while the Rook bring ruin in the enemy's rear... This is the only game lost by DeepSaros in this test.

DeepSaros regains his old warrior spirit.

This version is a variant of rev.6, more daring and aggressive... I like it!
Ideal for chess players who want to find plans sharp and brave.

An example of the style of game DeepSaros rev. 6h:

Game Fire-3 - DeepSaros_eXp

FEN: 4k3/pp1b1p1B/1q2p3/1PbpP2p/P5r1/2r3P1/3NQPKP/R2R4 b - - 4 21

21... Rxa4! 22.Rxa4 Bxb5 23.Nc4 Bxc4!? 24.Qxh5 Qb5

...Enjoi!
