===Computers=== In 2005, chess program [[The Baron (chess program)|The Baron]]<ref>{{cite web | url=https://www.chessprogramming.org/The_Baron | title=The Baron – Chessprogramming wiki }}</ref> played two Fischer Random Chess games against Chess960 World Champion [[Peter Svidler]], who won 1½–½. The chess program [[Shredder (chess)|Shredder]], developed by Stefan Meyer-Kahlen of Germany, played two games against [[Zoltán Almási]] from Hungary, where Shredder won 2–0. TCEC has held [[Top Chess Engine Championship#TCEC FRC (Fischer Random Chess)|TCEC FRC]] since 2019 where [[Stockfish (chess)|Stockfish]] has won every edition except the 2021 edition which was won by [[Komodo (chess)|Komodo]].<ref>{{cite web|title=TCEC FRC 4|url=https://tcec-chess.com/#div=frc4fl&game=48&season=21}}</ref> Since 2022, they have also held tournaments for an additional variant called DFRC (Double Fischer Random Chess) or FRD (Fischer Random Double), which arrange the starting positions for White and Black separately instead of requiring them to be mirrored.<ref>{{cite web|title=TCEC FRD|url=https://wiki.chessdom.org/TCEC_FRD_rules}}</ref> There are thus 960 × 960 = 921,600 possible starting positions, and more potential for the positions to be unbalanced. These events have all been won by Stockfish.
