Go up one level in this thread


I also messed around with this one a lot, and found that on a push to the
seventh, a full ply extension was best.  Sixth rank and other pawn extensions
blew up the search too much, or else didn't help if fractional.

The 7th rank extension helps me quite a bit in game play and test suites.
