A couple of things: 1. You are using a mixed-depth search, D+1 for the first root move, D for the rest. I know of no way to _compare_ those results. IE if a D+1 fails high, and I don't have time to re-search it, what do I do? I can't trust a D ply fail high over a D+1 true score, because the D ply search is shallower and could be overlooking something critical. 2. You have to watch the hash table. Else you are going to store an entry with the wrong depth at the root. That will certainly cause a problem on the next iteration.
