Qh5 After 9.fxg6...Bg7 10.Bd3...e4 11.Be2...Qb6 12.Bh5...Kd8 That is sufficient for now. The evalution score is still a minus for Hiarcs. Sarah, Black has a very powerful passed pawn on the e-file. I am not a Grandmaster, and so maybe I wiil not be able to make the most out of this position - or maybe I will. Only time will tell. However, the passed pawn I have is very strong indeed! The point of this and the other opening I presented is that after 8 moves Hiarcs has a minus score!! Okay? I have not been able to accomplish that against Fritz 5.32 with the F5 Book CTG. Now, let's not get personal about which program is better. I don't have an answer on that. The purpose of showing weak lines is so that the programmer can be made aware of what needs improvement. When a program has a minus score after 8 moves, I think it needs an improvement in that opening line. If you disagree, let's let it end right there. Hey, it's no big deal, Sarah. You seem very defensive of Hiarcs to the point you appear offended that someone would criticize your program as if someone threw a rock at your dog. You like these openings? Fine! I'm content to leave it at that. Mel > >This is the position you claim so bad for white ??? >Again I don't see it. Please post more details. >Thanks. >Sarah.
