For your information, Ruffian 1.0.1 likes Rc8 up to depth 11, then cat depth 12 changes to Qc7, to Rb8 and finally to Ba6, giving a score of +0.55 in favour of Black. If it changes again I'll let you know. BUT, 1) Is f4 the best move, and White failed to find the best resistance? 2) How did the actual game continue? A sample line with Ruffian goes as follows: 1) ... f5 2) Qc4+ Qd5 3) Bb3 Qxc4 4) Bxc4+ Kh8 5) Nd6 Bxd6 6) cxd6 Rd8 7) f4 at which point it thinks White is doing pretty well, +1.09. Cheers, Mike.
