 HiG:
It would be the summun of presumption to pretend "optimize" your engine in which
you surely has worked a lot and only after ONE game. Nevertheless, I can give
you a first tentative feeling. Two or three times the program went for tactics
and it seemed to me the search was not wide enough to see collateral answers
that could put the program in a predicament. Maybe the search is too selective
in some positions? Is like he fell in love with a pretty line and he just did
not see some posible replies that were bad for him. In the meantime the Gui
likes me very much, very good one, a lot of information.  I suppose you are
going to become commercial sooner or later. Anything extra I can find in new
games I will let you know
Cheers
Fernando
