But then again it does more full width ply now and Richard also may have tweaked it over the years to pick up a few more things. Is the basic search algorithm and non-opportunistic behavior the same? I don't know but I'll bet it is, just less pronounced. It could be tested with some positions involving the theme of trapped pieces and relatively slow maneuvers to win them. I'll bet Genius doesn't fall for them but doesn't take advantage of them either! -- Don
