Hi Christian,

thanks for the game.  Very reminiscent of the XiniX game in Leiden when Ruffian
was completely unaware of the goings-on on the king's side.  Again the same
pattern of being oblivious of king safety.  Something that Per-Ola has already
been working on.  Bxg3 is simply a suicidal move, opening up the h-file for the
rook and queen, not to mention the very dangerous g3 mobile pawn.

On the other hand, I just played a blit match between the two and the score is
simply devastating for Ktulu 4.2:  got about 29%.

Regardless, this game is an excellent indicator of Ruffian's vulnerabilities.  I
just hope that they won't get really frequent.  What's the current score of the
match?

Thanks again,

have a nice and prosperous 2004.

Djordje
