http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M6A1xd1zSJw



The (A.R.B.C.S) is about PAWNS! and How best to use them! Concerning Pawn Structure Ect.

The Following Kings & Pawns Challenge is a Game to get Experience using the Pawns in the best

way Possible! with only the Kings & Pawns for both sides.

The Challenge is to try and Win in the Quickest way Possible!... first for White and then Black.

Playing against the latest (2013) + (3000) + ELO Chess Programs at (180) Seconds Per Move...

Fixed with Ponder on! for the Engines The longer time is for the Engines to get a better feel for the

Start Position! Plus to make the Results more Reliable as a Test! and Harder! to achieve

To give some help on a way to Try and Solve the Problem and also to show how hard it is!...

(4) of the Best Engines show how they Play the Game! Playing against themselves Critter,Houdini,

Komodo,and Stockfish,on the Following Pages & Videos.

P.S this is a Problem I have been Studying for some time! There must be an Absolute! best way to

Play this for White & Black...Please Post your Games! We may find it!?
