Hi Tania
There is an exhaustive analysis by GM Speelman at
http://www.chesscenter.com/twic/shirovshort.html
That will take care of your questions.
I followed the game "live" on ICC, letting Hiarcs analyze it.
It was sometimes incredible to see how Hiarcs in some postions only
considered one move playable and the players found it. Myself I couldn't
for my life understand why a move was good and why another didn't work.
Well, Hiarcs can be wrong from time to time...
It would have been very interesting to see a program play black. I guess
they would put up a very stubborn defence. As to play white, I think
they never could find long-term practical winning chances before Shorts
Re8.
Greetings, Ralf :)
