Subject: Top programs of today are too materialistics to play the correct move !

This Gem of a desperate trap was was played by Bogoljubow with the black pieces
against Alekhine. Position after Black's 39th move where the trap was set up by
Bogoljubow hoping to end up with an extra bishop. Nowadays top computer programs
will NOT fall for this desparate trap, since they are all too
materialistics and almost 99.9% will play 40.a5 which will also win, but
Alekhine decides to walk into the trap and proves that this is the quickest way
to WIN!

[D]wKd3,Nd4,Ra8,Pa4,b4,c3,g3,h2/bKg7,Bb6,Rf6,Pa6,d5,f7,g6,h5

40.RxP!  BxKt
41.RxR   BxR    winning back the rook with an extra Bishop
42.P-R5...Now the extra Bishop is unable to stop the two passed Pawns.

If for instance, 42.....B-Q1, THEN SIMPLY 43.K-Q4, FOLLOWED BY KxQP, K-B6, etc.
