At one stage of the game it looked as if Smirin could make GT do whatever it wanted it to do, he "seemed" to be in total control of the game most of the time, even though the program's analysis say otherwise. While I was analysing the game watching it live in playches.com server, with shredder6.02, it just went nuts throughout the game. It couldn't make up it's mind who is actually in a better position. And I am sure most of the commentators and kibitzers couldnt either. Which goes on proving the fact that its one thing to analyse the games of GMs and "try to think" like a GM, and it another thing to "think" like a GM. This is my favourite game of all time, GO Smirin, GO GT, thanks for the game :) pavs
