Emne: A note about the checkmates

Interesting that even the mate in 37 by Juan featured a knight checkmate, not a bishop checkmate! This could mean that given a wide variety of choices, the unforced loss was just as long as the forced loss. Or, the database could need to be scrutinzed more fully.

If you want to go over any point in the analysis shown here, I will do so and check whatever you woud like checked out.
