My 3rd correspondence chess game with Hydra (this time Hydra Scylla) is online
now. Everybody is welcomed to watch the game semi-live on the
www.Chessfriend.com server. The time schedule is about 2 days per move.

This is Hydra's introduction to game 3 on its website:
"Game 3 has been started between the correspondence chess GM Arno Nickel and
Hydra. This is the 3rd game of the series of 4 games agreed between the 2
opponents, last 2 games has been won by the GM Arno Nickel and this time the
Hydra team is more enthusiastic about the game and hoping to make a win, Hydra
project manager Muhammad Nasir Ali commented on the match, "Correspondence chess
is certainly different from the classical chess and we found it very good to
play against a GM, the last 2 games helped us a lot to learn about the
correspondence chess and with this we are ready to play the next two games and
we hope we will perform better. Though we did much more better then the Arno's
predictions about the Michael Adam's match and we hope Hydra will do its best
against him as well in the coming games."
