Uniacke v Blincoe the Game.

Post by Harvey Williamson »

Hi All,

This will be the start position for the match it is Black(Steve) to move. It is game 1 from Zappa v Rybka, in Mexico, except 12.d5 instead of a4. Please add any analysis and comments to the game that you wish to.

Best wishes,

Harvey

Ah-Hah...this helps...I'd play 14. a4! here and I think Marks's machine might be stronger than yours....but it's really tough to call what it will play!?

There are a few here to keep White's edge.

I'm going out on a limb with this one, and make a transposition call and a return to book!!

But first let me correct the fen...

14. a4! Regards,

i took back the a4 move and put the b4 move and now playing with black it played c5xb4 and it shows -0,04 in this position for black. For this move this dedicated machine took 25 min. still on level 3 min. each move average time.

Well one out of three...hopefully I can improve on that :?

There are only two alternatives worth considering and one of them is bad.
So the next move is 14...cb or Black will be losing.

Steve's machine hopefully isn't quite that "dumb" :shock:

The Next Move is 14...cxb4 Regards,
Terry
