- 1.c4 e5 2.Nc3 Nf6 3.Nf3 Nc6 4.g3 Bb4 5.Bg2 0-0 6.0-0 e4 7.Ng5 Bxc3 8.bxc3 Re8
9.f3 e3 10.d3 d5 11.cxd5 Nxd5 12.Qb3 Qxg5 13.f4 Qh5 14.Bxd5 Qxe2 =/+ - this

etc....

as black
- 1.d4 Nf6 2.c4 g6 3.Nc3 d5 4.cxd5 Nxd5 5.e4 Nxc3 6.bxc3 Bg7 7.Nf3 c5
  8.Rb1 0-0 9.Be3 Nc6? (9...Bg4!=) 10.d5 Bxc3+ 11.Bd2 Bxd2+ 12.Qxd2 Nd4 13.Nxd4

  9.fxe4 Nxe4 10.Bd2 Qxd4 11.Nxe4 Qxe4+ 12.Qe2 Bxd2+ 13.Kxd2 Qd5+ 14.Kc2 Na6
  15.Nxc4 0-0-0 16.Qe3 Nc5? - since Kramnik-Shirov 1996 this move not as good
+/-
- 1.e4 c5 2.Nf3 e6 3.d4 cxd4 4.Nxd4 Nf6 5.Nc3 d6 6.Be3 a6 7.f3 b5 8.Qd2 Nbd7
9.g4 h6 10.0-0-0 Bb7 11.h4 b4 12.Nce2 d5 13.Bh3 dxe4 14.g5 hxg5 15.hxg5 exf3
16.Nf4 Ne4 17.Qe1 f2?! (17..Rxh3 -Anand-Ljubojevic -/+, "Fritz family" made on
this variation lot of points as black ....)
- English opening as complex, but big problem have with pseudo dragon - 1.c4 e5
2.Nc3 Nf6 3.Nf3 Nc6 4.g3 d5 5.cxd5 Nxd5 6.Bg2 Nb6 7.0-0 Be7 8.a3 0-0 9.d3 Re8
10.b4 a5 11.b5 Nd4 12.Nd2 a4 13.Bb2 Bf8 14.Rb1 Ra5 15.Nc4 Nxc4 16.dxc4 Be6 +/-
(Kortschnoj) - this position reached in 17 games in all matches ...
etc...

b) i test Gandalf 5 with my Pocket Fritz. I found i bug (?). If he have set
"ponder on", after oponent making predicted move, he played immediately -this
made some weaker moves, and strong opponents like as Fritz can get bigger
prospect

c)results
1) 60min/game, K6-450, 50 games for each opponents ..., identical hastable +
