Go up one level in this thread


Using an Athlon 1800+ and 256 Mb hash, Fritz 8 finds axb5 in one second (1 sec,
+0.66) favoring white, and later the advantage for white increases (37 sec,
+1.03) and suddedly finds that Nb8d7 to be a "better" move.

After forcing 1... axb5 2.QxR, it doesn't seem to see Bd4 at all; this move
remains around the 8th position in its move list with a high score for white
(depth 11/46, +2.75).

However, forcing Bd4 and in autoplay, it's a massacre for white.
------------------------------------------

Junior 7 instantly finds axb5 as well, and very quickly is replaced by 0-0, and
later Nb8d7.
It doesn't find Bd4 neither (normally its 8th line: depth 14, +1.59)

------------------------------------------
The same with Schredder 7, Gandalf 5 and a few more I've tried.


It's a very interesting position!!!
