This was not a tournament game, but a private match played by a friend of mine in my home. This friend happens to be a strong player (2300+), and it is indeed possible for a human to win a game every now and then even under these conditions (30/game, P6-233, PB on). I should also note the same friend has lost and drawn much more games than won. :-) Besides, the aforementioned Hiarcs game was indeed influenced by a dubious opening line by Hiarcs (no -5.xx, but my friend said it was not a sound opening). I will post the game as soon as I get clearance. --- Shep
