It was a G/5 and the only game I've ever won at blitz vs any of the top programs. It was another "f3" move by Rebel that caused it's demise. I was watching TV between moves and expecting to lose as usual when Rebel played the 27 f3. I had 11 seconds left on my clock and couldn't believe I had actually won. Here it is: [Event "G/5 minutes"] [Site "?"] [Date "1999.09.24"] [Round "?"] [White "REBEL 10.0(PII-333)"] [Black "Jim Walker"] [Result "0-1"] [WhiteElo "Very Low"] [BlackElo "2550"] [ECO "C26"] 1. e4 e5 2.
