"Adams-Dreev,Wijk an Zee 1996"

This one is very tough. I analyzed it for several hours with the electronical
friends and they seemed to have a very hard time.

Maybe you will have to give your engine some time to find Nd5 before you give it
even more to avoid it again :).

Any engine that can solve this ?

To get an idea what is going on, here is what the GMs played:

18...Nd5 19.Rad1 f5 20.Bc1 Bd6 21.Bxd5 exd5 22.Rxd5 +-

Especially 20.Bc1 seems to be hard but I believe it's the pure depth which is
the biggest problem.

PS: Btw, 18...Nd5 is in Fritz 7 tournament book ;-)
