(Lee, Pensacola,Fl 05.01.2001)
e3! is the move to find but it takes so long as you can see. I have seen only 1
other position take longer and that was Nolot 5 that i solved. Are there any
that are more difficult? nolot 5 took over 20 hours (19/50ply). besides this
find the mistakes by fritz in this game obviously prior to move 23 and other
games at tournament time controls you will notice these high depths are needed
to somewhat understand GM (or strong IM) level chess.
