I found this in the book..."THE COMPLETE CHESS PLAYER"...


1. Re3.......(black then plays Be6...)

2. Nh7...!

The Saitek Cougar will play both moves correctly when set at the 5 ply level...

The Novag Amber will play both moves correctly when set at 6 ply...

Mach 3 takes 49 sec. just to find 1.Re3...

Polgar takes about 3 min. and 20 sec. to find Re3...

(Polgar (5Mhz) always seemed slow in bringing out the rooks, but in a game,
in was very tough to beat, and had "no problems" in the development of the
rooks, etc. I could not understand this....:-)
