It doesn't matter whether he did or didn't in this case, as I was running Junior5 as a module inside ChessBase and it therefore didn't have access to an opening book. > >Since I have not used Junior 5, could you please submit the game analysis. There's no analysis to be submitted, other than what I already posted as to search depth and time. It wasn't analyzing the complete game. I just loaded the Kasparov-Deep Blue game in ChessBase, clicked on White's 11th move and activated the engine. It found 11...h5 in the time stated and stayed with the move (it's analysis didn't change with a deeper search). > >The reason, I am asking, is based on the fact that other people seem to find 11 >...h5 within a rather short time when using Junior 5. That's because I'm using a Pentium 133 with minimal hash tables (2 MB), so naturally it will find the move more slowly than somebody running it on the latest hardware with large hash tables. My point is that Kasparov's statement is a crock. Junior5 finds the move on a computer that is *much much much* less advanced than Deep Blue, and still finds it in a length of time that isn't unreasonable for a game played at tournament time controls.
