I should re-state that in the position I posted MCP8 takes 28 moves not as stated 30. Alas, I still await my copy of 5.32 yet expect it within days !!, however would be interested in seeing any game scores you produce from this match-up similar to your previous posts which were really interesting especially the Junior-CM match-up. Will you use standard CM or custom settings, regardless if you use custom please post the settings also. Dan Kiski.
