Excellent comments. This one This move as well as the 32nd betray an indecisiveness about how to proceed in this position. Computer programs do not play like masters. Masters often follow a plan that is set in operative terms. The program's plan is its evaluation function, which is an implicit plan and it's up to the search to find the best way to execute. Every move is a fresh look into that problem. Sometimes this search comes up blank. is probably the most concise explanation I've ever seen of 'why did it play that strange King move, doing nothing?' :) Alastair
