Dan,

Which knight and what was the winning combo?  Junior 6a suggests N-f7 countering
the outpost white knight.  The exchange of pieces only leaves black down a piece
with the compensation of the exchange for a rook.  Not enough when you are
playing elo 2500 machines.  What programs do you have and can you win against
them in a similar situation?
