I've been enjoying performing game analysis of some of the FIDE KO games as they become available. One of the more interesting for me has been the Round 1 Game 2 matchup of Ponomariov-Al Modiahki. As I watched this game unfold on ICC I thought that it would be very difficult for a human to accurately handle the three minor pieces versus a queen. When I analyzed the game with Hiarcs 7.32 (1 minute/move) the analysis showed that the advantage changed hands several times. I wonder how accurate this or longer analysis really is. Unfortunately, after I printed out the analysis I didn't save it. Any other opinions? White: Ponomariov,R Black: Al Modiahki,M 1. e4 c5 2. Nf3 e6 3. d4 cxd4 4. Nxd4 Nc6 5. Nc3 Qc7 6. Ndb5 Qb8 7.
