  Hello Christophe,
what makes you think it is 4 plies? I have always thought that
after the 6 plies of brute force, Genius searched 12 plies more
in a selective way and there was nothing else (these 12 plies
include the quiescence search). Have you an example where Genius
"sees" more than brute force + 12 (hash tables off , of course) ?
