It plays something like Ra4 with mate in 29 instead of your mate in 31. I do not have all 5 man tablebases though. I only have about 4 gigs of what I considered most important. I might mention that my Fritz also does not suffer from the error which Uri discussed earlier (Kf3 instead of Kh3). I don't know what is causing the error but maybe one of the tablebases that I don't have is the problem. My tablebase depth is the default 3. Jim Walker
