This is another nice example of how to outwit the computer. I recall a
poster named Covax sharing with this group similar positions that exposed
the king safety weakness in programs.

I wonder if a human here might consider d4 (to open things up against the white
king) or c4 (to keep that white bishop off of d3). Still , black would have
to play very accurately to survive (if that's possible) the white piece buildup
against its king.
Thanks by the way for all those tournaments you organize. I enjoy downloading
the games and playing over the games.
