Secondly he went to the free banquet, although it was for everyone obvious how difficult the position was, because ferret had big problems making progression already when Amir left. The fact that the position was better for ferret doesn't take away the fact that he left and then instead of congratulating the winner, accused Bruce from giving away the world title by means of a deal to Stefan. You should come to next world championship... ...and see for yourselve... ...i see thorsten likes to remind of previous world championship. Well, that's not how i want to put it. People change, but some things in computerchess seem to never change. Greetings, Vincent
