Hello, Chess Tiger was lucky too (and Capture also...) : [Event "CDF99"] [Site "Clichy"] [Date "1999.10.10"] [Round "7"] [White "Chess Tiger"] [Black "Chess Guru"] [Result "1-0"] 1. e4 c5 2.

Rg7 1-0 Chess Guru should have made a draw (perpetual check) after 40...Qa1+. Instead, it tried to win... and lost a few moves later!

Kh1 Ng3# 0-1 Capture should have played 35.Qb6 and draw. Feeling it was a little better (big error), it played 35.a5?? and lost. Conclusion : if you play against Chess Tiger, set your contempt factor to +0.5 or something like that :-) Sylvain Renard, programmer of Capture
