This variant of Ruy Lopez is played when a chess player wants to tie. The
variant is itself already a anti-computer line, because the games are usually
positional. If you play a positional variant, is much easy to choose
a dificult position for programs. Do you remember the game Rebelx
Hoffman, when Hoffman, with the black pieces, played Benko Gambit?
