The analysis at 30+ minutes gave RD1-G1 (+30.38) a decisive >>advantage over moves #2 QA7-C7 (+16.06) and #3 RD1xD7 (+15.34). >> >>How does your favorite chess program see this position. > >I guess that chessmaster can see forced mates. >Fritz is not the best program in finding forced mate and your positions are >unimportant for testing playing strength. Hi Uri, My hardware is Pentium 4 2.66 w/ 533 FSB. I did the infinite analysis mode in Fritz 8. Sorry I do not know how to limit which moves fritz can look at. I was at 1125kn's average. Could you help me with positions that are important for testing playing strength. I am new at this and would like to post positions but only ones that are useful to others. If I can understand then that is half the battle :>) Thanks for your time. Richard
