Listed below are games by the winner Strelka. Games posted in files

Konikowski 0607.pgn.
The Konikowski Gambit's winning percentage in this tournament is
comparable to other black defenses such as the Sicilian & etc, about
45% for Black. Which means it is definitely playable. Strelka played
a solid game from the Black side of the Konikowski Gambit and some
of the Black wins were endgame grind downs. The Filipino chess engine
Twisted Logic upset Deep Fritz 8 with a win & a draw. It also took
a draw from Strelka. Strelka swept its 2 closets rivals Deep Junior 10
and Deep Fritz 8. This means that Strelka is a very strong chess
engine and is problably one of the 5 strongest chess engines.
Hopefully the games from this tournament should shed light on how to
play the Konikowski Gambit.
Best Regards
Clyde Nakamura
