I'm sure Bareev would never play 13. b4?! against any human player.  I can only
speculate that he had good results in a practice game against Junior with a
similar idea and decided to give it a try.

Junior was clearly better, but didn't play incisively enough to win.  I saw 3 or
4 king moves before move 50 that were typical "I don't know what to do now"
computer moves.
