At first I would say it is impossible to search only 4 4 "quiet" positional moves and still survive. What about a subtil tactic made out of many quitet moves? But then again, Genius does quite an impressive job with only 6 ply positional and a huge tactical search on top of that. Ok, possible in principal, but very difficult. But anyway I agree with CT that it is probably a hoax and he is simply running Fritz or something. Bas.
