Thanks.. that was my point!

The game is irrelevant, the Key Positions are.
Was trying to show, that there are many positions where humans
can see at a glance, the Strategic Plan, and without a forced continuation,
the Computer might Search for days, and not find the correct plan.
It's a great tool, and fun.. but I trust my own Intuition.
Appreciate all inputs here.
Thanks again.
