I don't mean to criticise an obviously very strong player; he found the move in
20 seconds, but it might have been the wrong move.  In this case it wasn't -- in
other cases he may move just as fast, or slower or whatever, and it could be a
blunder or weak move.

What I'm saying is, we all naturally tend to emphasise results that impress us,
and easily forget those that don't.  So there are some moves he may have missed
in the course of his game(s) with you that Hiarcs and Fritz might have improved
upon.

At any rate, thanks for your very interesting example which has given many of us
something to think about.  As Dann Corbit said, it could be useful as a test
position.

Cheers,

Mike.
