Exactly, Enrique! Is this what the chess computer world is waiting for?
A tournament where we are not welcome? This tournament is already a
shame and Bosboom showed what the whole Dutch chess community was shouting
for the last couple of weeks: That this is not a good experiment.

I have been following the reactions of other chess players, especially
at my own chess club. They are furious at the Dutch chess federation.
Many players playing in the higher dutch leagues are against this. It was
so foolish to close their eyes and act like nothing was wrong.

One thing: Tomorrow Bosboom will be the hero of the Dutch chess community,
that's for sure.

Well, goodbye Dutch national championship, better watch Mickey Mouse on
TV this evening!
