Leela chess is here https://github.com/glinscott/leela-chess

It uses the exact MCTS algorithm as described in AlphaZero, with value and
policy networks, but performs really badly in tactics (often missing 2-3
ply shallow tactics)

To get a somewhat strong MCTS chess engine, I had to use alpha-beta
rollouts instead, as described in
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/research/wp-content/uploads/2014/11/huang_rollout.pdf

I think this could be suitable for 9x9 Go too.

It has been a mystery for me how AlphaZero avoided into falling for shallow
traps in chess.
