Dann, I have not done an in depth study (maybe you or Uri have) on this, but from the few anti-computer games I have examined, it seems to me that this works best for people who play that way (my normal style is an anti-computer style or a quiet style). It seems that people that just adopt this this style have less (but not zero) success. Again, this may not be true, but I have also seen some pretty poor anti-computer attempts (K v DB97 for example). Some just beat the programs by shear will (Kramnik vs Deep Junior6). Also, in my limited exam on this, it seems to me that the anti-computer strategy has changed. For example, just trade to an endgame does not seem to work as well today and the Stonewall or KIA are less effective (though still used with limited success). Any thoughts?
