I know of no public games between DB and DT.

I had a mate in 18 against abir har aven
when no commercial program can see the mate and I found the mate only
by going forward and backward with chessmaster
that is the best in finding mates.

chessmaster6000(ss=10)could not find the mate in a few hours
on PIII850 and it means that probably no program can do it
in a reasonable time.

I posted the position some weeks ago and yace also could see the mate
after going forward and backward but not from the root position.
