Yep probably correct, i don't think i've seen as many shocking moves made by kasparov or alekhine so yep as i said once before CM is the "REAL CHESS SYSTEM TAL!" > > 3.

Ofcourse it's endgame is no where near the strength of Lasker, but it >seems to possess the Solid Defensive capabilites that Lasker was known for. As far as getting into total lost positions, and then coming back to win, that's just like lasker. Though, lasker just kept finding ways of escape until his opponents couldn't take it anymore and then they blundered out of frustration against him. Fritz sort of lures it's opponent in. The opponent runs in for the kill, thinking it's about to munch on a helpless wounded sheep, when all of a sudden the sheep pops up and lays out the opponent with an uzi "ratatattatatt pow!" > > > 4.
