Come to think of it, g3 is not a very good move. CM's next move will be e4 and then we'll be in trouble, forced to play dxe4. Then CM will swap queens and we will be forced to either lose castling by taking the queen with our king or taking the queen with the knight, losing the pawn back, and stuck in a much inferior position.
My suggestion is Bg5 so that our queen will be communicating with our rook.

Just my 2 cents worth...

I doubt he will move e4 next; not beeing able to castle has no meaning if you can get compensation for it. We have a fine position after 8. ...e4 9. dxe4 Qxd1+ 10. Kxd1.

That's a common newbie mistake that chessmaster won't do yet. You forget, we are already up a pawn, and we have no problem trading queens even if that forfeits the right to castle temporarily.

Expected move. Machines are idiot savants.

My vote:

9. Bg2

I'm sure that next move by CM should be 9... Be6.

9. Bg2 is really the only good move, we need to get our king out of the center. it looks like he may try to open up the game soon, so we need to get castled.

I think its next move will be Rd8, not that it changes our castling needs.
