As I said, there is no guarantee at all that I had the best moves for black in the line I emailed. I just picked something where black wins. So you don't agree black wins there. Well what a surprise. >Singular etensions are extensions for things that you can prove. >If in almost every node there are 2-3 logical lines then it is clear that >singular extensions can prove nothing. My implementation of SE for crafty (which is suboptimal) finds that black is ahead (it doesnt see the win of the piece -yet-) three plies earlier than normal crafty. As I said before. It's not because _you_ can't see something that it isn't there. -- GCP
