A move like 7...Qb6, to be eventually followed by 11...Qc7, the ugly maneouvres with the knight (8...Nbd7- 12...Nb6- 14...Nc8- 15...Nb6) have nothing to do with the way an human plays- at least, not a fairly strong player. To say nothing about a grandmaster! I don´t doubt that Fritz 9 is an exceedingly strong engine, but you need better advice about what games you should use for ads. The above one is terrible. Telmo
