I think this position with white pawns on c4,d3,e4,f5 is quite easy to win for a human player of some strength. And van Wely would surely have done it with 30 min on the clock. Of course, it's just my opinion, but I have watched players with rating 1650-1700, striving for similar, closed positions and, after some attempts, succeeded to win vs computerprograms. White, as someone wrote, gets all the time in the world and black has no counterplay whatsoever. It becomes a one-way game. Thanks
