Subject: EGTB Question

Hi,

AFAIK the endgame tablebases like the Nalimov Tablebases use one byte per
position. Thus, the max. length results in somewhere about 126 moves to win /
loose.

Now the question is this: How do these databases handle the positions that are
mate in 130 or 140 or ....

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Eiko
