In MY experience, it's not enough to do something before the computer realizes it, but that it is VERY CAREFULLY played and worked out, also! I've often got into positions where I think there could be a brilliant winning attack esp. kingside, but don't know exactly which one way will do it, if there IS one way. I often try, but it's usually not that one way, or at any rate, atleast one of the moves I make is not according to it. S.Taylor
