[Computer-go] Komi 6.5/7.5

[Aja Huang]

Hi all,

As you might know the Chinese professional player Ke Jie is like an
erupting volcano, triumphant in many domestic and international Go
competitions.

In the interview at

http://sports.sina.com.cn/go/2015-11-04/doc-ifxkhqea3033663.shtml

Ke Jie said in his opinion on 19x19 komi 6.5 or 7.5 favors White. That
seems consistent to MCTS's behavior? i.e. on the empty board, with komi
7.5, Black's win rate is usually between 46% and 48% meaning White is
ahead. As the current top pro, Ke Jie's viewpoint is very interesting. :)
