Great ... you just did it again! Boy ... *now* I'm jealous ... :) But actually they are triplets! José Antônio later added this one: [D]8/2p4Q/8/8/p7/K6p/2r5/1k6 w Mine is currently thinking about this mate in 20. Changed my pawnpush extension for it, but don't have the patience to let it run for too long, so I'm pretty certain I'm not going crack this one. What I do find surprising is that even with 1 or 2 ply extensions my search doesn't really explode! Well on some positions it does, but in this one it's not happening. Probably hash and repetition check control it somehow. Pretty funny ... Paul
