I replay the game in the evening and play the Zarkov moves in the regular time
from Zarkov. Crafty 16.15 on WinBoard with ponder, 40 moves in 40 minutes, and
the Crafty.rc from this game !

I think this game is an good example for the big problems from many chess
programs (king safety). Crafty play in move 14. 0-0 and the game is over, Zarkov
play the correct move Rc3 (I think better than Bc3) !

The result I postet in the evening, I hope :-)

Kind regards
Frank
