Take this position for example: 2k5/8/7p/8/5qP1/1Q5K/8/8 w - - 0 72 If you run infinite analysis on it with Shredder 7.04, Fritz 0.008 and ChessTiger 15, you will find that the Shredder accumlates TB counts about 8 times more than Fritz and about 16 times more than ChessTiger. If TB probing is counter productive, how come Shredder does it so much more and can still be at the top? Jim
