Subject: Pinning, Isolating and Attacking Hiarcs 6

Well, I found out today that I passed my medical board recertification and that
I will win a prize in the Publishers' Clearing House contest with prizes
totaling $14,000,000 dollars.  I was so excited that I played Hiarcs 6 at Game
in 30 minutes on my PII 333Mhz and beat it.  Hiarcs had 1 minute left and I had
23 minutes left.

Here is the game:\

Petrov Defense

White:  TJ Frohlick
Black:  Mr. Hiarcs 6


1. e4 e5  2. Nf3 Nf6  3. Nc3 Bb4  4. Bc4 O-O  5. O-O Nc6  6. d3 Bxc3  7. bxc3 d6

8. Ng5 Na5  9. Bxf7+ Rxf7  10. Nxf7 Kxf7  11. Bg5 c6  12. f4 Bg4  13. Qe1 Qb6+

14. Kh1 Qc5  15. Qh4 h5  16. fxe5 Qxe5  17. Bxf6 gxf6  18. d4 Qe6  19. h3 Ke7

20. hxg4 hxg4  21. e5 dxe5  22. dxe5 Rf8  23. exf6+ Kd6  24. Rae1 Qc8

25. Qg3+ Kc5  26. Re5+ Kb6  27. Rb1+ Kc7  28. Rxa5+ Kd7  29. Rd1+ Ke6

30. Qe5+ Kf7  31. Qe7+ Kg6  32. Qg7+  checkmate!

The 15. Qh4 move was found by Hiarcs 6 after a 7 minute search post-game
analysis. The winning move was 26. Re5+ and it led to a king hunt.  It is nice
to show a computer who is boss.  I tried to duplicate the moves from  11. Bg5
with "Der Bringer" but it managed to get out of the complications.

Try this game with the newer Hiarcs 7.32 and see what happens.

PS  Do you think that with my prize winnings of $1.00 or less that I will be
able to afford a Gameboy?
