Something wrong with my set up? Interesting. Now, what could possibly be wrong?
You tell me. I was playing the game and after a4 the score went down and so I
let Hiarcs repeat the move twice and twice it played Rf1 with a plus score.
That's it. Period. Now, the other move by Hiarcs in this game, which Hiarcs
played and stayed, was 20.Qd2. Do you or your friend who is PA State Champion
think that was a good move?
