I wouldn't like to make predictions yet as there have only been 11 rounds
completed. However, it does seem that Junior has a lot of work to do. Its
amazing how strong this Shredder 8 is. Regarding round 12, I don't think its
clear who will win now, Shredder spent 23 minutes on move 42 and its evaluation
dropped a lot.

[d]4r1k1/6p1/Q1p2n1p/2P1p3/PB2P3/2nr2qP/1R4B1/5R1K w - - 0 42
Here Shredder played 42.Rbf2 += (0.29) Depth: 18 0:22:03 where Junior was
expecting Bxc3 and was fearful in its evaluation (more than +1 for white).

Now at move 50, Junior and Shredder both think black is better.

[d]4r3/6pk/2p3qp/2P1p3/PB5r/2Q5/5RB1/6K1 w - - 0 51
Position after ...Qg6 -1.06/17 3:44

Shredder is currenly thinking
