OK, I lied. When going to bed last night I decided to give CSTal-2 one more chance to win because it was due one more game with the white pieces. Of course it lost. This is even making me wonder now. I have played CSTal-2 vs the other top programs at blitz and "Active" chess and it usually does a little better. I might add I have also seen Crafty beat Hiarcs 4 games in a row when Hiarcs is clearly winning the match so this is all a little unusual but not impossible. One last note. This PGN came from CSTal-2. It's "Export" function saves games in PGN format. The strange thing is when it saves the games it put "Chess Tal II" as Black and Hiarcs 7.32 as white. Still trying to find a way to claim the victory I guess. Or maybe just another feature. It has a few strange "Features". [Event "40/2"] [Site "?"] [Date "1999.09.19"] [Round "?"] [White "Chess Tal II(K6-3-450/256M"] [Black "Hiarcs 7.32(PII-333/128M"] [Result "0-1"] 1. Nf3 d5 2. d4 e6 3. c4 c6 4. Nc3 dxc4 5. a4 Nf6 6.
