The following position (probably not unknown to many who followed the WMCCC in Paris) is from the Dark Thought vs. MChess 7 game in Paris. In this situation, MChess 7 played Rc4!! 2r2kn1/1p3pr1/pq2p3/3pP2N/b4P1P/PnPQ4/1B4P1/1R2KB1R b k - ; bm Rc4; id "shep06" I have tested all current top programs on this, and they all find the solution between 1:52 (Hiarcs 6) and 13:58 (Rebel 9, all on P6-200). Their evaluations are between -0,62 (Hiarcs 6) and -0,25 (Fritz 5, Rebel 9). Now Junior 4.6 (engine) finds this in 4:08, and after 4:50 it is the only program so far to return a positive score for black: +0,23. Maybe we'll soon have a program that actually scores this as a clear win. At least we're one step closer now. :) Another "Hooray!" for Amir! --- Shep (full details... you know the place :)
