People usually don't need to find the very best move in real game. We don't need best move even in analysis or in the comment of the game.
If 26.Bf7 with big evaluation for white (+2.5 or +3 or more)- there is not a mistake (from the human point of view).
Hi!
I have a question for anybody really, but especially for strong players. I am going through Euwe's middlegame books. Obviously, he's a former world champion. As I go through it, I have Stockfish running in the background. Now, I don't expect GM Euwe to always agree with Stockfish, and anyway he may point out things that are not strictly the best line just because they are instructive to humans, but already in the first two games he has given double exclams to moves which Stockfish labels as serious errors. What I am wondering is...given a human World Champion took time to annotate games for publication (and also had Alekhine's notes on the first of these, so that is two World Champions), vs an engine chewing on it for a matter of a 60 seconds...is the engine likely right or wrong? In at least the first case it appears to me that the engine line is a clearer win (though both are clear enough). Just wondering what people usually find in this kind of situation.
Thanks,
RCM
P.S. Game is
