It will be interesting to get a proving tree to the +5(I mean a tree when programs can see in every leaf of the tree in a few minutes +5 evaluation for white or at least +4). The score for the other nolot position is more convincing because black must follow the main line. I think that the Nxe6 problem is more easy to solve for chess programs because it is not hard to see a positive score after Nxe6 Qxe6 when it is hard to see a winning score even after e5 dxe5 Ne4 Nh5 Qg6. Junior5(p800) found Nxe6 after 46 minutes. It failed high with a score of 0.60(it did not solve the fail high). I guess that it cannot find e5 based on an analysis with it. Uri
