Subject: KEEP THE QUEEN; BEAT THE MACHINE

Author: Jonathan Lee

Date: 13:49:17 01/22/01

In the top programs (Junior, Tiger, and Fritz) since Jan. 1st 2000 how many
games did the human beat the machine with a queen?
So far all of the games in Frankfurt and Dortmund the human had a queen upon
getting a win.
How about the last 2 Dutch Championships?
What percentage of games did the human win with or without a queen.
This excludes pawn promotion.
It seems to me beside closed games, the queen is the next nemesis for the
machine.
(Imagine the initial position which is before move one that the squares d1 and
d8 are vacated.  The top programs would most probably jump another 100 rating
points.)
