CCC Practice Game

[Spock]

I'm going to go with Bf8 as my vote
Bg1 is OK, but I think Bf8 looks better, and I prefer either to Bb6

Bb6

Best,

Gerold.

He will force the B trade next. Than we lose.
No way out of this one.

This move or Ray's move will be about the same.

Got to change over to Bf8. Maybe we can avoid the B
trade again when it comes up.
Again Steve i change my Vote To Bf8 Thanks.

Best,

Gerold.

I worry about the R30...

well i guess we must play on until the position is such that the players feel its correct to resign
i do think though that if we hit the 6 Piece EGTB that the game should be awarded to the R30
wouldn't want to have to run the R30 for another month and Another 20-30 moves against a table base in a clearly won position

Another 10 to 15 moves should show if black can get the draw.
It not i think we should resign and start that other game that
Ray wants to play.

Yes, let's set move limit at 85 and analyse that final position with 3 top engines if game result still unclear.
