Yes but my program has other knowledge that is more important and seems to have
chances against everything(it lost matches against list4.61 but got more than
20% inspite of always changing the first move and no pondering).

I guess that after I add knowledge about pawn structure and king safety it can
become close to the top amateurs but even without it I believe that it is
clearly better than most of the amateurs.

The problem is that I want to add it in a good way that means detecting also
weak passed pawns(I remember that hiarcs generated weak passed pawn against
smirin and it did not understand it).
