After looking DJ games I felt an strong temptation to play a lesser brother, Junior 6. My pc is powered with a AMK-2-450 Mhz. Of course I expected to be crushed, but, as sometimes happens, programs, even mighty one like this, have some bad days. What is curious -and that's the reason I publish it here- is the ugly way Junior went down in positional terms and lack of counterplay. The game finished in a draw after I went tired, bored and without more time to follow with the attack. Techs comments are by Fritz. Verbose nonsense is mine. villegas,f - Junior 6.0 [E99] Level=90'/40+60'/20+30'. Santiago, 25.04.2001 [Junior 6.0 (41s)] E99: King's Indian: Classical Main Line: 9 Ne1 Nd7 10 f3 f5 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 Bg7 4.e4 d6 5.Nf3 0-0 6.Be2 e5 7.0-0 Nc6 8.d5 Ne7 9.Ne1 Nd7 10.Nd3 f5 11.f3 f4 12.b4 Nf6 13.Qb3 last book move 13...c6 14.Bd2 Rf7 15.Rfc1 a6 16.Be1 a5 17.a3 Ne8 18.Bf2 Nc7 19.Bb6 With this the queen black bishop will stay in his craddle from beginning to end.

Junior position cannot be more unpleasant. FV 29...Qd7 30.Ba4 Rf7 31.Bb3 Ne8 32.Bb6 Rf8 33.c5 Kh8 34.cxd6 Nxd6 35.Bc5 Re8 36.Rd2 h5 37.Qa2 cxd5 38.Nxd5 Nxd5 39.Rxd5 [39.Bxd5?!

That's other side of being old: extra caution and tendence to unneccesary panic. 45...Qc7 46.Qd2 [¹46.h4!? b6 47.Qa1±] 46...Qd7 ½-½ Well, not that bad for an old fart. Fernando.
