Note that fritz has also a lot of threat extensions. Crafty repeated exactly the same line as against Nimzo. Very dumb. So it was dead lost from all sides. Play 100 games crafty here against DIEP, Fritz, Nimzo, Zchess, SOS, Shredder or anything that is doing either a lot of checks or doing checks in qsearch. Bye Bye crafty. Crafty in Najdorf is a zero in advance at icc it basically plays e6 d6 systems. NOT aggressive najdorf systems. So selecting this opening is stupid in advance anyway, like i discovered with DIEP in Caro-Kann.
