This game finished a long time ago, but I just analyzed with with Fritz. Never expected it to give me a "!!" but hell, I'll take it. 🙂

Originally posted by !~TONY~!What I find craziest about that game is that Briscoe's tactic that won two pawns was actually dubed as a blunder by Fritz! The eval. goes from -1+ to nearly +4, and black's two pawns up!
I think I have seen that game before. It's a really good one! I wish I had an engine installed on my comp so I could look at it again!
Crazy, crazy game - I think my favorite that I've played.
Does Arena work with F9 comments/annotations?
Originally posted by cmsMasterDoes it still give "!!" if you allow more time per move? 1 second is awfully short, even for a comp.

Originally posted by cmsMasterWas your opponent Chris Briscoe? He's a pretty good over the board player, he got an IM norm at Hastings.

Nevermind, I see that "Briscoe" isn't Chris Briscoe. I didn't realise that playtheimmortalgame.com was another alias for this site.
Originally posted by cmsMasterNice game, but why don't you learn how to change the evaluation time? All of the games you post are at 1 second which while not completely worthless, don't give you much that I wouldn't.

I have it higher on my laptop, forgot it was so low on here - I keep it at 1 sec. for blitz games.
