It quickly sees 0.00 but then finds something better. It later sees that Ba3 is not just a draw but a win. I think several others see a 0.00 score instantly, but beyond that it depends on how deep you search to see the _real_ win. IE my 13 ply score was almost +4. GT had a score of +1, which means it hadn't seen the full consequences of Ba3 completely, until another iteration or so. The unfortunate thing for most of these positions is that it is not uncommon for some programs to get the right move without a clue. Mine does it quite often, and then only later discovers that the move was a brilliancy. Other times it will discover that such a move is a blunder. :)
