But today all favorites do somehow hard: "Shredder" must stretch itself against "Crafty" to secure over the half counter and also for "Fritz" completely beautifully comes against "Deep Sjeng" not beyond the scoring hurrying. Round 2: It continues well: against "The Crazy Bishop" of Remi Coulom can "Jonny" in the central play a farmer conquer, after first selects a few marks unfortunate positions for its figures (13th Le1?!, 23. Da2?!); its utilization would have been technically however surely far more with difficulty, white not the transition to the totally lost farmer final game would not have forced (43.Df4+?). All in all a tidy portion of "Jonny". Round 3: Jonny surprises me again positively with a Weissremis against the acting computer chess world champion "Shredder" from Stefan Meyer bald one (see also www.shredderchess.de), who began exactly the same as "junior" in round 1 on clearly superior hardware (4x Opteron 2,0 GHz). Fair way must be said however that "Jonny" had much luck in this portion: for a long time it looked in such a way, as if "Shredder" could win the Springer final game, but at least in a fast analysis we found no direct profit. After 39....Sd1+ 40. Kc2 seems to be the position remis, because white can hold the following farmer final game surprisingly: 40....Sa3+ 41. Kb3 ba4:+ 42. Ka3: Kd3: 43. Ka4: Ke3 44. f4 Kf3 45. f5! h5 (45.... Kg2?? 46. g4 h6 47. h4 and wins even white here!) 46. Kb5 Kg2 47. Kc5 Kh2: 48. Kd5 Kg3: 49. Ke6 h4 50. Kf6: (=). large pitch had Franz rotten with "Fritz" in this round: in the 60.-ten course exceeded its program in better position the time. Johannes Zwanzger
