Then explain why my SE crafty has a 3 ply advantage here. Two things: a) computers do not search logical lines b) there is no need for a big difference. my implementation will already extend on 0.25 pawns, or 0.50 pawns depending on the situation. it is unsure what Hsu used exactly, but the margins should have been similar in size >I suggest that somebody will ask Hsu about it. >I do not know the email of hsu and I may be cnsidered as an enemy of hsu after >my posts(inspite of the fact that I do not hate hsu) so I am afraid that he is >not going to answer me but maybe he can answer you or Hyatt if you ask him about >the position of that game. I very much doubt he would consider you an 'enemy'. At least you try to make arguments against DB. Most people here just spew crap. Problem is if Hsu reponds to email from strangers, and if the still remembers that game. BTW. Hiarcs found a line where black was ahead +1.7x something. I went back to the Bg5 move and selected 'Board-Setup Pos' to get the EPD to make a diagram in a post here. After I clicked 'Copy to clipboard' and returned to the board all my analysis (and the game) got deleted. Any way to get EPD out of Hiarcs 7.32 and save analysis? -- GCP
