Hi all,
After losing 15 blitz games in a row on chess.net yesterday I sought comfort in
a game against Junior 6a today. As it was my 100th computer game I have recorded
in my "against a computer" database (the rest went in the recylce bin :)) it
turned out to be a special one indeed:
It was a 25' game supposed to be at the strongest settings of Junior. However
I'm not that sure. It clearly stated so in the status bar, and *if* it was a
handicap game (maybe a strange program glitch) it would have be an Elo 2150 game
by Junior, as that was the last setting.
It turned out to be a draw - bashing the draw button all the time until the
tablebases told Junior it to be a real draw. So don't look at the last moves.
Somehow I can't reproduce some moves, like the pawn pushing on the queenside by
Junior, the delay in castling, an exchange at 9...Bxe3 and so on.
Anyone here have any thoughts if something (and if so what) went weird in
Junior's brain? Never had this before. It was played on DGT-board with DGT
TopMatch clocks. Never had these kind of "problems" before (if there are
problems).
Well, whatever, here's the game
