Thank you very much for this hint! I guess my program was just happy, to make it's opponent a doubled pawn. For a very long time, my program had itself huge problems with doubled pawns, so I taught it, that a doubled pawn is not only bad, but very bad in most situations... I'll have to take a look a these fianchettoed bishops! > Congrats on your match win vs Arasan >(which is, after all, close to expert strength, especially at the 5 min per game >level).

I'm currently running a game/30 tournament between the same programs as last time, but where possible using the newest program versions. It's a very interesting match, and there seems to be a little surprise in the outcome of the match.... >I should go on with my CC page after a two-week spell off.
