Just a wood pusher, but it appears white lacks the resources to chase the black knight far enough away, clearly. No giant computer power needed here. CM3000 (as black) makes the mistake of taking white's pawn, then runs it's king to the edge of the board, with little prodding. <How very nice!> This is fatal to it's game. Chenard's Chess wouldn't dream of touching the white pawn, despite my pleading that it do so. <grin> Interesting position, thanks. >>I've analysed with crafty during 2 hours on a celeron450 with KNNKP >>tablebase , >>and found no progress :/ If someone can analyse with bigger CPU >>and more tablebase during a night it would be great! >Please, I need someone who have big computer power!
