Go up one level in this thread


I realize that you are having a good time with takebacks.  But...

If one is trying to learn by playing against a computer, then probably the
optimal way is to allow a fixed number (maybe 2-3) of takebacks per game to see
how the stategical backbone of the game develops. These takebacks can be done
after the game is over (If they were not immediately fatal).

Then the "game" becomes a very instructive set of 2-3 variations to study.

Of course, talking about "beating the computer" is inappropriate in this
context.

Hate to say something serious in the middle of the fun,

Walter
