12...axb6 for us

Thank you.

13. f4

And I suggest the following:

If 13. .. Nc6 then 14. Qxb6.

If 14. ..Qxb6 then 15. Bxb6

This opening is more impressive than any of your cluster wins. What remarkable originality in the face of such known strength! What I persistently see in your play is an effort to arbitrage the difference between engine evaluations and what you subjectively think (think!) the position evaluation ought to be. If you can do this correctly and persistently you shouldn't be playing; you ought to be on the Rajlich development team. Chess science needs you!

well thats the engines known weakness isnt it, otherwise they dont need opening books, especially opening books that run until move 35

but its very impressive to put this into practice

Hi,

I wish the opposite . If Highendman would be involved we would lose the fun to win against program, sometimes. .

In the competition man vs program, i am on human side, always.

Hi, interesting discussion but since there is a game going on too

13...Nc6 and we accept the conditional of 14.Qxb6

Highendman · Post by **Highendman** » Tue Sep 29, 2009 9:12 am

Thanks. It feels like you're hard at work trying to find alternative plan to 14. ..Qxb6 by black

I'm curiously looking forward to your next move.

Dark Horse · Post by **Dark Horse** » Tue Sep 29, 2009 9:14 am

we play 14...Qxb6 accepting 15.Bxb6 there was an alternative of course

Highendman · Post by **Highendman** » Tue Sep 29, 2009 9:19 am

Thanks. Imho alternatives to your move 14. .. such as Rb8 were inferior, and Bb4+ could transpose, based on what you decide next, of course, to what you did now.

So you now have another 48h, cool. I'll keep watching this space
