 -- time control of just 1 second with pondering off -- so it got to see a
whopping average of ~4K positions per move -- just low enough to provide yours
truly with a chance of victory

[Event "Fun game"]
[Site "Secane, PA"]
[Date "2005.03.13"]
[Round "-"]
[White "Yours Truly"]
[Black "Tasc R30 2.5"]
[Result "1-0"]

1. e4 e5 2. c4 Nc6 3. Be2 Nf6 { my first few moves were to take it out of book,
standard modus operandi when playing against computers} 4. d3 Bc5 5. Nf3 d6 6.
h3 O-O 7. O-O Bd7 8. Nc3 Qe7 9. Bg5 Be6 { obtained a safe position with good
chances utlizing a long range plan beyond the 4k positions the Tasc R30 willsee
inthis game} 10. Kh1 { look weird, but it stops certain tactics that begin with
Nd4 , followed by Nf3+ and then Ng4+ with Bg5 hanging} h6 11. Bd2 {the sole
purpose of Bg5 was to encourage the weakening h6} a6 12. Nh2 Nd4 13. f4 Bd7 {it
anticipates f5! ;>)} 14. f5 a5 {the R30 is losing the thread here}
15. g4 a4 16. Nf3 Bc6 17. Rc1 Rfd8 18. Kg2 Nxf3 19. Bxf3 a3 20. b3 Bd4 21.
Qe1 Ra5 { with just 4K nodes, it does not pick up my attack plans and can not
even make plans of its own - horizon effect in play here} 22. Qg3 Ra6 23. Rh1
Raa8 24. Rcf1 Rdb8 25. h4 Rd8 26. g5 {game is won, there is nothing black can
do} hxg5 27. hxg5 Nd7 28. Qh4 Qxg5+ 29. Bxg5 f6 30. Qh8+ {(when in doubt give
check, it might to lead to mate) :>)} Kf7 31. Bh5+ g6 32. Bxg6+ Ke7
33. Rh7#
{White mates} 1-0

nothing to brag about regards,

ps - anybody here remember the Flintstones ? Could you imagine living a stone
house having Fred Flintstone as your neighbor on one side  and Barney Rubble on
the other side  ..when telling people directions to come over , that you live in
the stone house between Fred Flinstone and Barney Rubble..it could happen ...
