Hi Mark I don't know if I am ready to rule hiarcs6 out just yet. It just has a problem with this particular master. It has played six other titled players at game in 15 and won them all!! That's why I am so astonished at the result of this match. I agree thought that genius5 plays very well. Maybe even we justr had two flukes in a row which is not at all impossible.
