That >move was just the icing on the cake. I don't know if the game could have been saved before the move 26. f4, but I have seen this pattern in rebel 10 many times. I know other programs do not have a problem seeing the danger of f4. (junior5, and Hiarcs7) Here is Hiarcs7 thoughts, 26. Bg2 found in 178 secs. score -12. After seeing that 26. f4 was a busted move in 22 seconds. After 15 min. Hiarcs7 scores the position, 12->30 561sec. d5-g2 e2-d2 c1-b1 d2-c2 b1-e1 c2xc4 g2-f1 h3xf1 -29 > >James > >>only to play a stink bomb that other programs see in >>seconds.
