In this position there are two strong candidates, h4 and a5, which are evaluated almost the same. You can do two-move analysis to see this. When there are two equally good moves, which move gets selected may depend on things like the processor speed, time control, number of processors and the previous contents of the transposition table. The move h4 was played in the Illescas game by Deep Junior 6a on a quad Xeon 500 MHz. Amir
