Subject: ChessTiger is the greatest...

In a 30-Min-Testgame between ChessTiger 12.0(CA5.1) and Fritz6a developed on my
PIII/700Mhz the following position:

5R2/8/1p6/4n1kp/P2r1pp1/1P1p1P1P/5KP1/1R6 w - - 0 52

I did not trust my eyes, when I saw, what now the tiger after approximately 30
seconds pulled!  Because the program executed a course, whose consequences could
not possibly be calculated all in this short time, and which only many (carried
whole!)courses later rich fruits...  Fritz with its 850 kN/s "noticed" in the
above position naturally also that he (-1.20) was in the "quality minus".  But
it "did not suspect" also 40 seconds after the tiger course anything from its
misery.  Only its balance later tilted approx. 9 sections suddenly around 2BE
into the cellar.  After a few further courses gave it on (comment:  "not badly
for a bio Brain"...)

Indeed, if a program is capable of such courses, one is euphorically tried to
speak of "human" chess!  Because I analyzed (with the modest knowledge of a
2000-ELO-tournament player) the position in detail:  it gives determines four or
five strong white courses, which hold all at least the advantage.  But a course
is even the absolute " Winner " - the tiger course...

I think, such courses am it, which made this "ChessTiger" completely by right
the number one of the newest "Chessbits"-ratinglist (with Sweden it will
probably still last a few months...).

Much pleasure with your own tests of this position...
