7.c3 is an obvious move(and every good program and not only movei play it because the difference in score to the next best move is significant material) so you can already give the move of prissy after 7.c3 without waiting for Luis Smith.

As Uri has predicted Movei replies with 7...c3

[d] r2qkbnr/ppp2ppp/4p3/3pPb2/3P4/N1P2N2/nP1B1PPP/3QKB1R b Kkq - 0 7

I think it will be interesting to see what Prissy replies with. I don't know if she'll be smart enough to play something like Nxc3. For instance Movei at depth 6 wants to play Be4?

Prissy ..a bit nervous to learn that the Movei engine author himself is following the game..Does play what Movei would play at depth 6
7..Be4

Movei elects to play 8...Qb3

[d] r2qkbnr/ppp2ppp/4p3/3pP3/3Pb3/NQP2N2/nP1B1PPP/4KB1R b Kkq - 0 8

So far Movei has handled herself very well.

Move 9...Bxc3

[d] r2qkbnr/ppp2ppp/4p3/3pP3/3Pb3/NQB2N2/1P3PPP/4KB1R b Kkq - 0 9

Would a human rated about the same strength as the Saitek Prisma be able to overcome rook odds against a 2700+ machine?

I think I may try this tonight. Handicap Shredder 11 to 2400 or so and give myself rook odds. I guess that I am around 1400 ELO.

Also do any programs do something like "If the score for my side is less than -1 then avoid exchanging pieces". After thinking about it I guess that would be called a "Contempt Value"
