Looking forward to seeing more of it. If it can even improve my humble human
game .. ( I take your word for it).
It has only played a single game on my computers so far ( *ducks from Kurt
Utzinger*) .
*Very* impressive opening IMHO, and I really mean it ( it used no opening book).
But the French position reached was not really much to its liking and was
misjudged. As far as I can see Yace just threw the game with 39 .. Nd7 ?? for no
good reason. Rybka's tactical abilities were amazing though.
