GM Scherbakov opted by the Sicilian defense, which I think one
strategy taken a risk against programs, and Rebel Century played
an excellent opening, with aggressive moves.
Could anybody inform the last move that is in the openings theory?
To purpose, I already bought Rebel Century, because besides being
the last Top line Rebel, I admire that brilliant programmer's daring, Ed
Schröder, when placing his program to play against GMs in 40/2.
