Hi Kurt


I know very few people able to admit that they have been wrong. So I really
appreciate your post above.

Actually you are not completely wrong in what you say. Tiger might in some cases
exchange into a lost pawn endgame. However most chess programs including the
best ones have the same problems.

I'm working to improve this. As I understand you have a database of games where
it happened with CT12 and CT13.

Could you please post or email me some of these positions? I would like to try
to solve this problem, at least partially.

Thanks in advance.
