 I tested this game vs Fritz 5.32 /PII 400 60'/. First Fritz deviates in move
 8 prefering 8.-e6. Then chooses 9.-Nd4 instead of Bd7. Also prefering 10.-Bg4
 instead of 10.-Nb4. When forced into the position after 10.-Nb4 my game with
 Fritz continued:
 11.f5 gxf5(-0.47) 12.Bh6 Bxh6(-0.38) 13.Qxh6 Nxc2(-0.31) 14.Rac1 Nd4(-0.44)
 15.Ng5 Bc6(-0.63) 16.Rf4 e6(-0.22) 17.Rh4 Re8(0.00) Not even here sensing
 any danger! 18.Rf1 b5(+2.69) It´s too late, my friend... 19.exf5 Bf3(+4.72)
 20.fxe6 fxe6(+6.75) 21.Nce4 Ne2+(+7.75) 22.Kh1 Ra7(+10.03) 23.Nxf6 1-0.

 This attacking set-up seems to create big problems for computers! And it´s
 a basic one, used for juniors training.
