>You talk about facts, but exactly that facts you don't know. for me it is not important if they prepare for that line or the king "found" it by chance. the moves are the same. and IMO also the conclusion that rebel had no CHOICE to play different. >So all you and Thorsten write is mere speculation and >imagination. yes. interpretation of what we see. >You could f.e. ask Johan and me what really happened. And we >would explain that that would be to easy jeroen :-) >a) King was out of book at move 2 yes. but this does not refute that it was a trap. i would play out this game BEFORE the match-game and when i see that the king plays all moves without "help" i would not program a book. if it is enough to program 1.Nc3 then why programming MORE ? >b) There was no prepared line by Johan ok - if he says so i do believe him. or you. >c) The chance of this line appearing on the board was very small, as usual on championships the SHIT happens exactly in the tournament. Thorsten: There is a bug with promotion/underpromotion ? Oxford Softworks/Whittington: we don't see it, we cannot reproduce it, really? Paderborn tournament/championship: CSTal is in a winning position. Only a few moves to mate. Promotion comes. Chris stands up, games is ready, only a few moves. thorsten will end this. i am getting a coffee. BUG appears. chris comes back. Chris: What happened ? Thorsten: We lost the won game. Chris: Pardon ? Thorsten: we LOST ! Chris: WHAAAAAT ? Shit happens. Always. Especially on championships. >my tournament book has several answers on move 1, 2 and 3 i see. >d) Rebel was playing with an experimental version, which could >not be tested by The King team no - but my commercial version plays the same ! >All in all: Rebel fell for a trap in a line that COULD have been >avoided, but it wasn't a prepared trap. Period. I do forgive you. Do you accept my apology ?
