GriffyJr at FICS is the computer program Crafty v23.4. It makes short work of its human opponent.
GriffyJr - heliosant
5 0 blitz, FICS, 2024
1.e4 e5 2.Nf3 Nc6 3.Bc4 h6
The semi-Italian opening.
4.O-O
Moving right along.
4...Nf6 5.Nc3 a6
Black is being careful, perhaps too careful. Certainly 5...Bc5 was a strong alternative.
6.d4 d6
There is a hole in this idea, which GriffyJr pounces upon.
7.dxe5 Nxe5 8.Nxe5 dxe5 9.Bxf7+
Black resigned
Of course, now 9...Kxf7 would drop the Queen, but 9...Ke7 would be answered by 10.Bg6, and then White's advantage in material, King safety and development - in the hands of a coomputer - would be hard to overcome.
