It's always gratifying to grab the odd half point against these silicon beasts.
The critical point came here:
[D]2r2rk1/p3bp2/bp2p2Q/3pP1N1/3P3P/Pn4PB/1Pq2P2/3RR1K1 w - -
26.Re4! is a nice interference move which prevents the BQ from coming back to
aid her king, at the same time leaving the other WR en prise and leading to a
simple perpetual. Shredder agrees with me. I was surprised when I loaded the
position later to find that other engines seem to like 26.Nxe6!? I move I didn't
see, but they don't at all agree on their evaluations. Is White justified in
playing for more with 26.Nxe6 or would this have been worse then the game
continuation? What do you think?
