The game just had quite an impression on me.  I think that any even class
players like you and I know that in positions like that where you are up two or
three pawns the key is to give one back for an easily defensible position and a
won, pawn-up, endgame (ie 5.d4 cxd4 6.c3 was probably best for White in the
crafty-yousef game).  But it would impractical, and probably harmful to try
teach this to computers.
