Argument still stands as is though. > > Albert the problem is that I try to find the losing mistake in every game to have at least one test position from every game but it is not easy and I guess that at least in part of the cases I will have to have games that were not drawn with no test position. There are cases when I cannot find moves that blunders more than a pawn before the position becomes lost and I cannot be sure what is the losing blunder. Here is the last example from a game against bestia. [D]2r5/R1p5/P3k1pp/1P1b1p2/1K3P1P/4B1R1/8/2r5 b - - 0 52 Movei played Rc4+ and lost in the 3th division. 52...Rc4+ 53.Ka5 Rg8 54.Bd2 Rd4 55.Re3+ Kd7 56.Bc3 Rxf4 57.b6 Rc4 58.Bb4 59.Rc3 Rxc3 60.Bxc3 Rc8 61.Be5 g5 62.Bxc7 I suspect that Rc4+ was the losing mistake but I am not sure I suspect that finding Rb1+ is a good test position but I am not sure. Here is some analysis of Deep Fritz(Movei can also find Rb1 after enough time and I suspect that all programs are going to find Rb1 here but is Rb1+ the only drawing move?) I could not even prove that Rc4+ is losing material. In a game I would play Rb1+ for positional reasons but without knowing if Rc4 is losing.
