Crafty17.9c and SOS stays with Bxb2+ with an evaluation around +2.40. LG2000v2.5 starts of with Bxb2+, but changes to Bh2+ with eval. +2.39 at depth 10. It don't like Qxh5 and Bxg6 either I think. >I have not said there was anything wrong with Bf4+ for Tiger seems to hold with >that move, but I was wondering if any other program played Bf4+ or if someone >had a solid refutation to that move? I believe that Bf4+ is a difficult option. The rook on g1 is a problem and after something like Bf4+ Kf1 Bxh6 Qxh5 Bg7 things look complicated. In my previous post I forgot the short life span of the black knight on h5 :o). >Regards, >Mel Best wishes... Mogens
