In the last days chess engine Stockfish had combat against Google Deep Mind Artificial Inteligence

All the games were very exciting, BUT ONE just blew my mind away.

Google Deep Mind was down the material it has got only Rook, bishop and Queen against Stockfish Two Rooks, Queen and more powns.

It looked like Stockfish is winning, Stockfish was convinced he is winning, but suddenly...

Google Deep Mind Have created position where Stockfish has got no move to do!

The position like this was ones created beetwen Friedrich Sämisch and Aron Nimzowitsch in Copanhagen in 1923, but in my opinion it was not so exciting like where we see it created against very strong chess engine!

Queen enter the trap couple of moves ago!

Till the last moment Stockfish was convinced he is winning, but! Suddenly when being locked in the trap he discovered all his calculations where wrong, don't know what to do and gave up queen before finally resign!

You just must see agadmator clip where he explains all game:
In 11:20 he explains final position achieved:

What is Zugzwang?


Zugzwang is a situation when player only good move is to not make any, but game rules force him to do it so he must puts himself in worse position he was before move.
