whittaker: After 15... Qh4 :
[DIAGRAM] there are 6 other games in the database, all drawn, in which White plays either 16. Bxd4 or 16. Kg2. Here Crafty actually recommends the game moves
16. Kh1 Qh3 17. Rg1 Nf3 18. Rg2 g5
but then diverges with
19. c3 gxf4 20. Qa4 Rd8 21. Bxa7 Nh4 22. |

whittaker: In my analysis, I was assuming White would play 15. Rg1. Crafty agrees this is best and evaluates the resulting position at -1.20. After the game move 15. Ne3 it says the evaluation is -4.47. |

whittaker: <thegoodanarchist> Maybe it's because the White a-pawn moves ahead 4 moves in a row (and two squares on the first move). |
