Right now Junior 5 and CST Black are playing the 4th games (so far, 2.5-0.5 fo Junior). This is the position at move 22, black to play: 1k1r2r1/ppqb4/2nn1P2/3Q2P1/4pP2/P2P4/4N2P/1RB1KBR1 b - - It's a crazy position with the white king in the center but with all those king-side passed pawns. Tal stayed in book until move 20. Right out of book, CST thought it was +6 (!). Junior thought white was better too, but by +1. This gives an idea of how speculative CST plays. It's not a matter of having problems with CST, but of only seeing posted games that CST wins. It's an interesting program, even more interesting as a development project, but with little chances against the strongest ones. Enrique
