Even in closed positions, it takes someone who knows a good bit about chess to win the machine. But if it was on level "instant", (being Palm too) for example, then it is not surprising for any prudent chess fan to beat it. (I see the writer of this post is ERIQ, who I've seen here often and maybe an expert. So perhaps he played it on a higher level, but I don't know because I didn't see the time allotments). Yes, of course. teeth do go missing in closed positions. Maybe the fully enabled Tigers have time to access their anti-closed knowledge. Or is it illegal for a human to use the not anti-human mechanism? S.Taylor
