see everything is ok,i asked jimmy to delete.that guy is worth his weight in gold.
No doubt about it.
i normally play 5.Nf3 here but am having a quick look at 5.Bc4.prob transpose anyway.
the thing is,i get a big attack although i am a pawn down.theory is undeceided if its worth it.
bloody hell,i just got a blue screen when using Houdini on 12 core,long time since i had that,atm be wary of using latest Komodo although only 1 cpu and works fine from start position it crashes in middlegame positions,just a word to the wise.Don now knows about problem and is trying to correct.he sent me a corrected version but i am having probs with download he sent me,he says just alter download and rename it.trying to work out how to do that.as you can gather i know bugger all about computers.i was the boss many years ago over a typing pool,nobody expected me to be able to type.
Agreed it looks really good.
It looks like you about to get win #2.
nope.
I didn't have my tablebases up. I guess I can be wrong.
it looks good but no good.
I wonder what Nelson's book says?
Easily prefers Nf3.
5.Nf3
Been seen many thousands of times. Black has 52.4% with 24.6% draws, which means that it is decidedly not an engine line. I definitely prefer black here.
Sorry i have not made a move today yet. Been up the hospital most of the day.

Thanks. I will hopefully be back on-line tomorrow night. Had to take my dad into hospital staying in overnight.
sorry to hear that Mark give him my regards although we dont know each other.I have great hatred of hospitals.i am probably older than your dad but been lucky so far.
Thank you for your kind regards. He is 77.
My most popular move and also the #1 move in my book.
