Go up one level in this thread


Let me clarify. Of course computers always look for the best move in attack, and
also play the move they evaluate as as best. But when they see the evaluation
going down, they will look perhaps a whole extra ply deeper in search of finding
a way to bring the evaluation back up again.
  But if they see their evaluation going up, they do that move, sometimes very
quickly, atleast they don't grind away labouriously trying to find something
even better, even if the first "good move" is not all that good relatively.
