In Response To: Bower's Law (Chuck Bower)

Even YOU don't think you're as good as a bot, do you?

Sometimes I know I'm far better than a bot (see the opening phase) other times I haven't a clue. On plays like this though I am a bot. I don't need the reasoning, though I could obviously come up with it in this simple scenario, but I know it's correct because of training with the bots on their highest plies. One advantage to practicing with SW 3 ply or GNU 2 ply is that plays like this become automatic, whether you know the reason or not.
