Game 5, black
11...h5
Commentary for black move 11:
YASSER SEIRAWAN: Has 38 points of a pawn advantage. Pawn
equals
a hundred points. So it thinks 38 points. We do have a
question in the aweience.
DB MOVE: 11...h5.
MAURICE ASHLEY: No!
YASSER SEIRAWAN: h7-h5! Well, yeah. h7-h5? We've got to take
a look at Garry now!
YASSER SEIRAWAN: Garry is a happy camper! Who's been
programming this machine?
MAURICE ASHLEY: I mean we've seen some strange moves and
we've
seen some strange moves. That's a strange move!
MIKE VALVO: I think I better go upstairs and see what's going on
here.
MAURICE ASHLEY: Okay, well, we will give Mike his well-timed
break and he will go to the press room and get a few /TPR-FT
49th floor, the Grandmasters, there are many, many
Grandmasters
all over the world on that floor, and Mike, a little
reconnaissance mission for us.
YASSER SEIRAWAN: Absolutely, from the computer scientist. IM
Michael /SRO*EF.
MAURICE ASHLEY: All of us are shocked with the move h7-h5.
Let
me just catch my breath and get a question and then we'll get
back to the action.
YASSER SEIRAWAN: Yes, sir?
AUDIENCE MEMBER: Just a comment. You were talking about the
comment 10/10. The second number is the maximum ply including
extensions. So, in other words, it might search to 10 ply and
then it sees a forcing check line where it can check the
opponent, say eight more ply, that would go to 18. In this
case the deepest it's going is 32 ply. It's a special -- in
some special situations.
YASSER SEIRAWAN: So just to be clear that I understand you, the
10 -- the first number refers to all the possibilities up to
ten plies. Fritz is analyzing all possible moves five moves
ahead. But the 32 means that in one of its extensions is
looking 16 moves deep?
AUDIENCE MEMBER: Yes.
MAURICE ASHLEY: Thank you very much for that /SHRAPBGS.
We do
have a slight error on our screen to the left. It says move 10
was Bd4, when in fact it's Bb4+ Nd2 and h5.
