I performed an Opening Survey analysis with Chessbase 7, over Knut's 1 million
plus database, and found that Hiarcs'7 move ...Nh5 had a VERY POOR score
compared to the main lines. Therefore it seems to me that not only was Hiarcs
black, it played a doubtful opening line, and to me that is more of a factor
than the hardware.
Having said that does anyone know why Hiarcs didn;t play ...Q:e4 at some stage?
I was watching the game when Hiarcs played ...Qd4 and poor Human that I am I
couldn't see why the e4 pawn was taboo...the counter attack on the f2 pawn
didn't work in any case...
