In the Smarthink-Postmodernist game, it looked to me like out of book, Smarthink had the makings of a pretty good kside attack, though it was down a couple pawns. But Smarthink may have blundered in the following position with Qd2; if instead 24.b4, it can keep it's queen and the attack.

------------------------

I wanted to see how Amateur would have handled the potential attack, so I set up the position after Smarthink came out of book, which was after move 16 or 17. Amateur varies from the played game on move 19, and it turns out to be a very wild and unbalanced game. I don't think either program played optimally, but at least it shows that the position was tenable out of book, and that keeping the queen was helpful.
