However, when I continue adding moves the mate total doesn't go down consistently, e.g. it is still mate in 16 for White's next move. Surprisingly, Gambit Tiger 2.0 shows similar behaviour. It also says Bb6+ with mate in 16, but it's total doesn't drop by one every move either. Fritz7 says Bb6+ with mate in 22; its total does drop consistently. I didn't pay too much attention to this initially. My main point was to show that the position is not drawn, and that White can win. Gordon > >Regards, >Dieter
