The King 2.54 takes 8 seconds to find 1. Rc3, score +4,16
(expecting 1. ... Nc5). After 1. Rc3 Qd8 there follows
2. Nxe6! after 1 second and all other moves take less than
a second! I guess no one can beat The King here.

Used machine: AMD K6-2 500 MHz, 64 MB Hash.

On the same hardware Rebel Tiger needs 6'03" to find 1. Rc3,
evaluation +4,04 (expected move 1. ... Nc5). After 1. Rc3 Qd8
the move 2. Nxe6! takes only 3".
