1. 9-13 22-18 2. 11-16 {The Wilderness 1. Murray chose this opening, his last choice in the tournament. It proved to be a good one!} 18-14 3. 10x17 21x14 4. 6-9 23-18 5. 7-11 24-20 {!? A very non-standard attack} 6. 16-19 {with this move, Cake dropped out of it's opening book} 27-23 7. 11-15 {Played with a positive score. Murray believed that 3-7 here was necessary to draw, but there is another opportunity later on.} 23x16 8. 12x19 18x11 9. 8x15 14-10 {! the point of white's play. Black can win the man on 10, but in return he will have compromised his back rank badly.} 10. 4-8 {? The loser. 9-14 instead still draws. But Cake saw it was winning a man, and couldn't resist. Man-down play is still one of the major challenges for us programmers!} 20-16 11. 2-7 25-22 12. 7x14 16-11 13. 8-12 28-24 14. 19x28 22-18 15. 14x23 26x10 16. 9-14 11-7 17. 5-9 7-2 {Black has grabbed the material, but he is hopelessly lost now. White has a perfect back rank and can simply wait until Black runs out of safe moves.} 18. 12-16 29-25 19. 14-18 2-6 20. 16-19 6-2 21. 9-14 2-7 22. 3-8 7-3 23. 8-12 3-7 24. 19-24 7-11 25. 18-23 10-7 26. 23-27 32x23 27. 28-32 7-3 28. 32-27 23-19 29. 27-32 19-16 30. 12x19 11-16 31. 19-23 16-19 32. 32-28 19x26 33. 14-18 3-7 34. 1-6 7-2 {a possible conclusion of the game would be 6-9 2-6 24-27 31x24 28x19 26-31 18-23 25-22 19-24 22-17 13x22 6x13 23-27 13-17 27-32 17x26 WW} 0-1
