Why are you asking such questions, Vincent?

Of course, I am trying to win.

I might have missed a fair share of the advantage black had along the way, but black is still much better here.

Trying to turn water into wine :wink:

But I've been surprised before.

Water are your SF scores.

And the wine will come later, after SF replies. :)

Looks like SF is hoping for a repetition of positions. It plays Rf1:
