Subject: Anyone want to try a quick test position

Hi,

PM just got squashed by crafty on ICC. The move where it becomes obvious what
will happen is here:

[D]3r2k1/1p3pp1/p3p2p/P1b2q2/4n3/1B2P2P/1PQ2PP1/R1B3K1 b - - bm Rd1

PostModernist just didn't see this coming at all. When I try to search from this
position, PM doesn't find Rd1 in 2 minutes. I'd really like to hear how long it
takes other engines to find it.

Here is the full game:

[Event "ICS rated standard match"]
[Site "204.178.125.65"]
[Date "2002.08.22"]
[Round "-"]
[White "PostModernist"]
[Black "crafty"]
[Result "0-1"]
[WhiteElo "2550"]
[BlackElo "2498"]
[TimeControl "1800+10"]

1. d4 Nf6 2. c4 e6 3. Nf3 Bb4+ 4. Nc3 c5 5. e3 O-O 6. Bd3 d5 7. O-O dxc4 8.
Bxc4 Nbd7 9. Qb3 a6 10. a4 Qe7 11. Rd1 h6 12. dxc5 Bxc5 13. Qc2 Rd8 14. Ne4

{PostModernist resigns} 0-1

Thanks for any information.
