Heading to a draw ?

Gab,

A post of this kind probably won't end as a draw.

I shall post analysis by Fruit 2.1MB soon.

It only suggests 11.Bg5, 13...Bd7 and 18.Bxe5.

Thanks for running a such long interesting game
And I am a BIG fun of such slow games,e.g i have similar testings with 24 hours per game

But however,i did not like your current opening (its a pity that you used a such unusual opening)
Personally in case of such slow quality time control,then i would prefer to test the engines without books
or at least i would prefer with different stronger openings,which are up to 8 or max up to 10 moves (in depth)
