Subject: Test Your Positional Play

What are the best results anyone has got on this test set?

Most top programs get 14 or 15 out of 33 however they all solve some problems
but change their mind. Get this Hiarcs 7.32 which is supposed to be the more
positional program did solve some positions the fast searchers couldn't but
still didn't do any better.

I would like to see results for Nimzo 3 or 3.5, Nimzo 7.32,98, 2000,
Shredder,WChess, CSTal, Zarkov etc. I am beginning to believe that nobody is
going to do much better. This set is also only the tip of the iceberg as the
gelfer positions are just as hard if not harder.(Positional Chess Handbook the
reprint is going to be out in November 2001)
