Yes, it sure is nice to see those kind of games by CS Tal. I once
witnessed a young IM getting busted 5 times in a row, playing blitz
vs CS Tal. (5-min blitz, all were Sicilians-CS Tal playing black.)
In spite of the fact that CST excelles more at longer timecontrols.
A program made to play humans and with a truely spectacular style
of playing. A rare bird in the garden of Eden!
