Hi Scott! I am still rather exhausted from the last two days and therefore was not yet able to have a deeper look at Hossa's games. In our game I dont know yet how Hossa would have won if Monsoon did not play 33.Kg3. [D]8/N1p4k/8/P3Rr2/1P2pr2/3p3P/3Rb1PK/8 w Here Hossa expected 33.Re6 during the game with a draw score. Can anybody see something better for black?? Greetings, Steffen. On January 20, 2003 at 02:59:44, Scott Gasch wrote: // >Better here might have been exf6+ Nf3 Bxf3 gxf3 Re2 Rxd3 Rxf2 Nd4 Rxb2.

Nice game, Hossa. I was glad to learn Steffen had >a hardware upgrade for CCT5 so monsoon at least had an excuse. Yes, I love that hardware. Thanx a lot to Alex Kure who organized this machine for CCT5. Unfortunately I have to give it back in two days. Until then Hossa stays online at ICC if you want to play him. Best wishes, Steffen.
