Dzindzichashvili vs. Fritz 1991

Good old times when humans could beat engines

Amen.

27. Qxg7#, missing mate in one is unforgivable.

I fear this was written in one of your less lucid moments Ms V I was about to ask what you were trying to do, and to whom, that got he/it booted off chess.com ... then remembered the danger of asking such questions!

what are you meaning, guy?

Haha, yes accidental deconstructionism! I could not quite work out who had got booted off and what you were trying to do

Lol 27.Qxg7 is checkmate why didnt he go for the quickest mate?

24. ... d3 seemed an odd move for Fritz. Something like Bd7 would have seemed saner

Didn't Kasparov miss mate in 2 against some more recent silicon monstrosity? TBH I find it a little heartening that even GMs do it

I don't know about that but I know Kramnik lost one a few years back because he missed that the computer had a mate in one. That was a sad day.

Kramnik walked into mate in one, but that's not what I said. It is unforgivable to face a position in which you are offered the possibility to mate in one and you fail to do it

oops, did not read well (comment deleted)

I know what you said, I was responding more to the guy who had quoted you rather than you. I agree with you for the record.

Yes I replied to the comment before yours, you posted in the meantime (accidentally about Kramnik as well)

Is this the original version of Fritz? The version I have never plays that badly against me!

I'm uncertain of which version it is but you'll have to take into consideration that the game itself is from 1991, so it clearly isn't whichever version you're using. At least I hope not.
