Well, not exactly a brilliant performance by Anatoli but it did better than I expected. It really needs more eval, though, in the endgame and also in the middle game.

Look what happened today in a game in ChessWar against Hamsters:

[d]1n2qrk1/r1p5/1pP1pbp1/pP1p1p1p/Q2P4/3NP1P1/P3NPP1/1KR4R w

Anatoli had black ... :shock: :shock: :shock:

Hi Martin,

I thought that Anatoli would struggle also, but it proved us both wrong on this occasion! 8-)

As for the position that Anatoli got itself into in the ChessWar game, all engines have their bad moments. :wink:
