What are the pro's and con's of doing null moves "at the root", e.g. after a ply 1 move and then another null move by the same side. It seems to help dramatically in some tactical situiations, but not others. Thus far, Tinker has only used null moves starting at ply 2 (actually ply 3) moves, e.g, Tinker makes a move, then opponent replies, then another null move reply. Thanks Brian PS One example of it helping is BT2630.03 5r1k/p1q2pp1/1pb4p/n3R1NQ/7P/3B1P2/2P3P1/7K w - - bm e5e6
