I guess you have something broken. If you post your code here so we can have a look, we can try to help you. Anyway, remember you can cut the search and return beta in case the static eval is >= beta without searching anything at all. And remember that, if the static eval is > Alfa, you can set Alfa = static eval. Hope this helps, José C.
