Go up one level in this thread
Hi, I would interpret the system not accepting the move as it doesn´t completing a move (or even a kind of cheat :). We don´t have enough information on what really happened except that the game was stopped because of technical reasons, computer related. What really crashed there? Well if this questions will have an answer, i don´t know. But I´ll enjoy to see another game. Also, I would like to point out that GM Smirin seems to be a little tired as the level of his game seems to be bellow the begining of the match.
