Hi Will,

This is what PostModernist thinks:

INITIALIZATION TIME: 15
FEN result : 1

8  . r . q r . k .
7  . o o . . . o .
6  . . . . . o . o
5  o . . o o b . .
4  . . n P n B . .
3  P Q P . . N P .
2  . . P . P P B P
1  . . . R . R K .

If this was a five-minute game, PostModernist would almost certainly have
taken the Pawn.

Cheers

Andrew
