This indeed looks strange. I cannot reproduce it at the moment. With other hash size or another set of TBs, it is not too surprising, that I cannot reproduce the exact line. The only explanation I have is, that part of the line was from the search, and part of the line was reconstructed from the hash tables when displaying the line. When using the console mode of Yace, it will try to warn you about this, by attaching an "H" to the moves from the hash table. Under GUIs you won't see it. The search logic should not allow a repetition inside the PV. Regards, Dieter
