Go up one level in this thread


Let's see.  What if there are an average of 4 decent moves in a given position?
That's 2^2.  Each player plays a move in sequence, so on a turn there;s 2^4
options.  A good game might last 80 moves, so there's 2^(4*80) or 2^320
reasonable games.

I guess you have a big hard drive!!
