I haven't played them out, but I find it hard to believe that a program is showing anything by having its eval increase from like +6 at the root to +6.3 at some significant depth. Of course a program will be happy here, it is up a knight and a pawn in an ending. But take white's pawn away and put a random pawn down for black, and the program will think white is at +2 or more even though there are only very small winning chances, and black's may even be better. The whole point of this ending is that black is trying to escape into a drawn case down a piece. Without endgame databases, white will show a large positive score even if the position is a draw. bruce
