keine Anstalten macht, am Koenigsfluegel etwas zu unternehmen, ergreift dort
Junior7 die Initiative. Und das Israelische Programm ueberwaeltigt das

d move, TheKing312X has won his game against Shredder6. But this time, his
opponent was Fritz7006, who needs only a few moves to defeat the program of
Johan de Koning in the shortest game I have ever seen. Rather exceptional and
demonstrating an important weakness of TheKing312X. Mit diesem schlechten Zug
hat TheKing312X schon Shredder602 geschlagen. Doch Fritz6002 benoetigt nur
gerade einige wenige Zuege, um das hollaendische Programm von Johan de Koning
zu zerschmettern. Eine derartige Kurzpartie habe ich noch nie gesehen.
Aussergewoehnlich und eine grosse Schwaeche von TheKing312X offenbarend.} 12.
