I don't think this costs even 1 node per minute to Fritz. Do you evaluate checkmate after exactly 100 plies without conversion as a draw or as a checkmate? Note that checkmate after exactly 100 plies is a win and not a draw. You cannot use only the number of plies because using 101 is also not correct and if there is no checkmate after 100 plies it is a draw and a capture in the next move is not relevant. Uri > > José C.
