Subject: A pondering idea...

Author: Dann Corbit

Suppose we are at some position 'p' and we are just about to submit our move...

If several of the moves took about the same time to search, we submit the move
and keep pondering on the current root.

If the key move failed high or if all the subsequent searches of non-key moves
were quick, then choose the pm to ponder instead.

Has anybody tried it?
What is right with this idea?
