Hi Ed,

Of course Piket knows how to do the job, but in every game it remains to be seen
if one succeeds in blocking the position. Anand was trying the same yesterday
and failed.

Anyway, I am impressed how Piket finished the game off, an impressive showing! I
hope that these games make programmers clear that 'more NPS' and 'search,
search, search' is not the way to tackle the problem: How to play in blocked
positions, or even how to avoid them.
