Hi Ernst ,

I agree Fritz 6a found this more or less by accident on my computer ( eval
supports this ) in the last moment .

Still it is a cool manouvre : obviously the previous moves influence the search
result ( not surprising with Fritz not clearing hashtables ) ...

The discussed moves are very appealing to a human mind I think as they go well
with the assessment of the position ( static advantages all for white with
remaining pawn levers and Ng3, f5 as a motive to come about soon ( pawn levers
stuff not really understandeable to any chess program I know ) )

Black has the momentum instead , ( or iniative ( choose the one which translates
better ) )

So Ne6 is logical if it works .

I'd wish more unclear ( or better not completely clear ) positions were
discussed here ; I could well live without a few chessmaster/Deep Blue posts
instead ( good I am not one of those moderator guys ;-) )

greetings .

pete
