Go up one level in this thread


Sorry! this game was indeed very brilliant, and I can really sense the wisdom in
the Shredder engine.
I'm afraid, however, that the possibility of sending this game to the forum is
not available without purchasing the program first, it seems.
But it might finally be the engine to satisfy me! We'll see if it also tops the
ssdf etc. If so, that's it.
1.e4   e5
2.nf3  nc6
3.Bb5  a6
4.Ba4  Nf6
5.0-0 Nxe4
6.d4  d5
7.Bb3 d5
8.Re1  Be6
9.dxe5 Be7
10.c3  0-0
11.Nd4 Nxd4
12.cxd4 Bh4
13.g3  Be7
14.Rxe4
There it is!
Then I gave over the White position to see if Shredder could find the best moves
after this (against itself), and it handled it most grandmasterly both
tactically and strtegically, and won for white, convincingly, and that, after
black made complications which a normal human master might not have survived.
 Don't worry! after Black had provoked the weakening 13.g3 from white, Black
managed to get the Queen to h3 and it's bishop to e4, threatening mate. But
white managed to cope with that, WITHOUT losing its own attack. Only top human
Gm's might have succeeded in that, the way Shredder did.
