My quest against Shredder: Part 7

Submitted by deadmau5 on Tue, 10/06/2009 at 8:42am.

We seem to be improving despite early endgame and late middle-game blunders. What do you think folks? My most recent game goes thus:

I can't believe i didn't lose this game especially after being 2 pawns down. My rating against it jumped to 1900. I'll up the anty to 2300 for Shredder and try it again.

The machine didn't think so. White would be losing for sure. The bishop is already blocking any pawn advances as it is. Try performing an analysis with Rybka and see what you get.

No, White can't do that because: 24. Re8+ Rxe8 25. Nxe8 Qe7!

White could play on move 24. Re8+ and try to save the knight...
