Author: Mike Byrne

Date: 11:14:41 08/10/02

After 82 games, Crafty 17.16 SE leads 46.5 to 34.5 There are  5/games.

These positions are easy as programs will need to see these in a few seconds in
a 5 0  game.  These might be good palm positions.

[D] 3r1r1k/5bp1/pn1p1b1p/3P4/4NP1q/2p1P1N1/P1B1Q2P/3RR1K1 b - - 0 39 ;am Bxd5

Crafty SE17.16 sees Bxd5 is a bad move in 3 seconds.  Aristach played Bxd5 in
the game.

next position

[D] 3r1r1k/6p1/pn1p1b1p/3b4/4NP1q/2p1P1N1/P1B1Q2P/3RR1K1 w - - 0 40 ;Nf5!

The black queen is trapped.
Crafty sees Nf5 Crafty 17.16 SE sees this two seconds.

[D] 3r1r1k/6p1/pn1p1b1p/3b1N2/4NP2/2p1P2q/P1B1Q2P/3RR1K1 w - - 0 41;Rxd5

Crafty 17.16 sees this instantly.  The critical postion was the first one as a
program would have to avoid capturing the poison pawn at d5.
