Junior9 by Amir Ban and Shay Bushinsky is the reigning computer chess world champion in all categories. Junior is different from all other programs in its search strategies and evaluation function. This gives the program a very distinctive style of play. The special strength of Junior is its understanding of compensation. The latest version is the culmination of a development that started with Junior7, the program that shocked Garry Kasparov with its famos bishop sacrifice on h2. Moves that looked purely speculative with Junior7 are proving to be perfectly sound in Junior9. This makes the program an extraodinarily effective tool for analyzing sharp and dynamic positions, especially those involving the sacrifice of material. It is the program that is most likely to correctly understand the compensation involved, both in the execution of a sacrifice and the defence against it.
