The orignal r.g.c. posts I have about this test set contained some information.

Deep Thought II solved them as follows:

   DT
1  6/8hr
2  2/3min
3  ---------
4  2.5/3.8hr
5  2/4hr
6  ---------
7  6/12hr
8  ---------
9  ---------
10 2min
11 5min

It's a little weird to read this list.  The first entry, "6/8hr", means that DT
would play it after 6 hours, but resolved the fail high after 8 hours.

It didn't find four of them.

Hsu claims that 3 and 6 are sound "positional" sacrifices.

He thinks that 8 may be flawed because the opponent in the real game defended
poorly.
