Looking at Fritz's main line cannot help to find the sacrifice but maybe it can help to continue correctly after you get the advantage. There is no doubt that these games are very good and expose weaknesses of computer programs. I am also not sure if taking the knight at g5 was the losing blunder of Fritz6a. It is possible that taking the rook at a1 was the losing blunder and I did not analyze this game to find the truth. I think that I would prefer to take the knight at f4 and not the rook at a1 in a game because the knight is close to the king and is part of the attack when the rook is not developed. Uri
