Thanks for the game.
Dont you think the h5 line is more interesting for black ?

I had a feeling I was, at some point, slightly better. There may have been a win for White that I missed. I'll do some deep analysis and let you know in a couple of days :)
Lukas - many thanks for this. It's been a lot of fun.
I look forward to game 4 & 5 on Friday.
After 3 draws against your Cluster it's time for a decisive result for one of us ;)

BTW - good work! Your draw with black was resourceful, you managed to find a rare position where the human is better than the lone engine.

Thank you Vas. I was working hard during that black game :) it was scary seeing the Cluster eval constantly going up.
But then around move 25 I saw a mental picture of the board at move 35 - and realized that with the knight at f4, there's simply no break-in possible.
Once Rybka played f3 instead of breaking in with f4, and allowed me to lock the king-side with g5 & h6, the rest was easy - and on move 34 it's 99.9% drawn position - although no engine I know of, even with many hours, could figure this out. I look forward to Friday and playing games 4 & 5 against the Cluster. After 3 drawn games I now have a better feel for it's play, so I'm going to prepare some ideas for these games. We'll see what opening it will allow though :)

I'm glad to see that the cluster plays 15...Bxb3. :-D
