So let me rephrase for my own edification. A position has been repeated twice already, and the program though it was good before and put it in the hash table. *NOW* it sees a win from that position where it didn't see it before, and plays to it, seeing from the hash that it can win. I'm still confused i guess, beause if it didn't hash it as a desirable line before, why would it think it would be now? Wouldn't it have to create a new winning line *past* the hash move? Wouldn't this always re-search that position in question, triggering the fraw detection? dave
