I know nothing is without a cost, big or small, which is why I ask. > > Albert Actually the mistake is there in that game ..... it just takes crafty 14ply or more to find it ....i didn't have too much time to look i will recheck and leave it for 1hr. my explination as earlier is Ne6 white (CB) gets the queen for 3 minor pieces Chiptest will have to mate and it isn't going to happen without promoting a pawn and that is far off so probably a draw at worst for CB
