I think what happened was that my program found Rxg6+ on move 30, then the time
control changed on move 31 it then didn't think long enough to be able to
continue with that line. It takes it over 6 seconds to avoid the losing d3g3 in
favour of d3h3.
The only thing that doesnt stack up with that theory is that is should have been
able to find d3h3 in it's hash table as black's previous move was predicted in
the analysis on move 30. Maybe somehow or other the hash entry got flushed out,
or maybe just a bug somewhere. Its possible as I have only recently written the
hash code. I suspect my hash code is still a bit flakey. Difficult to say now.
