Thanks to Martin Fierz's
"CheckerBoard" program at http://www.fierz.ch/checkers.htm, which made possible the recording of this game.
An analysis shows that the game up to
the 26th move (30-26) has been an even match (see diagram left column for
position). The analysis also shows that instead of moving the weak 30-26, a
draw may be obtained by 17-13, 3-7 and now 30-26, 7-11 15-10 6x15 13x6 2x9
forming below position. Continue from diagram 27-23 9-14 22-18 15x22 26x10
19x26 31x22 16-19 10-7 11-16 Draws. White
to move and draw.
