Colossus gives 28-24 as a draw!

I asked Martin about modifying Colossus to allow it to look deeper, but he says it would require rewriting the program in the context of today's conditions.

Time to get Kingsrow I think!

Hi,

I got home this afternoon. Been reading the discussion with interest about the Denny game. I am posting the game as it was played under tournament conditions. I missed an earlier win via an in and out shot after Teal made his losing move. My losing move with the 21-17 pitch seems to only be beat by 10-14 immediately (The computer sees this but not easy for a human without prior knowledge as it looks to further weaken the red double corner). Teal took 11-16 and we both kept draw in hand until his 3-7 move. I looked for a normal in and out for a while and failed to see the King sqeeze and was thinking I should have a win with this position now. So I played as I did and Kingrows on a quick analysis seems to show the win intact the way it was played. I didn't understand Teal's 3-7 but he may have felt pressure from the King and was no doubt trying to press in the single corner side.

Hope yall find this game fun and I'm looking forward to some of Alex's games being posted.

I decided to post my 2nd game with Teal. I don't think it will be easy to find much fault with this game.

Thanks Alex,

I found my way to the Games section and posted a game that Mike Choate and I had. He requested I post it as he feels he missed a win.
