Chessmaster 9000, on a P4-2.4, agrees that Re8 is the best move after 3:26, but the score doesn't indicate a forced win: Time Depth Score Positions Moves 0:00 1/4 -0.06 31347 1...Re8 2.a4 g6 3.N5d4 Ne4 0:00 1/5 -0.12 42053 1...Re8 2.a4 Qd7 3.Nh6+ Kf8 4.Bxc4 Rac8 0:00 1/6 -0.09 96161 1...Re8 2.Rac1 Bc8 3.Ng3 Qe7 4.Nd4 Bd7 0:01 1/6 -0.28 140425 1...Qd7 2.Qc2 g6 3.N5d4 Ne4 4.a4 Rae8 0:01 1/7 -0.25 244233 1...Qd7 2.Qc2 g6 3.Ng3 Qe7 4.Qc3 Rae8 5.Nd4 0:05 1/8 -0.37 718751 1...Qd7 2.Qc2 Rfe8 3.N3d4 g6 4.Ng3 Qd6 5.a3 Ne4 0:11 1/9 -0.24 1744305 1...Qd7 2.Qc2 Rfd8 3.N3d4 Be5 4.a4 Ne4 5.Bf3 Qc7 0:31 1/10 -0.30 4927572 1...Qd7 2.Qc2 Rfd8 3.N3d4 g6 4.Ng3 Be5 5.Bf3 Qc7 6.Rac1 Rab8 1:09 1/10 -0.35 11115590 1...Rc8 2.a4 Re8 3.Qb2 Bb8 4.N3d4 Ne4 5.Nf3 Qf6 6.Qxf6 Nxf6 7.N3d4 2:23 2/11 -0.26 23836343 1...Rc8 2.Rac1 Qd7 3.N3d4 Ne4 4.Qa3 g6 5.Ng3 Nxg3 6.hxg3 Rce8 7.Qc3 3:26 2/11 -0.29 34414059 1...Re8 2.Rac1 Bc8 3.Ng3 Bd7 4.Nd4 Bxg3 5.hxg3 Ba4 6.Re1 Ne4 7:25 3/12 -0.42 75106490 1...Re8 2.Rac1 Bc8 3.Nxg7 Kxg7 4.Bxc4 Bb7 5.Bd3 Rc8 6.Qb2 Bb6 7.Bf5 Rxc1 8.Rxc1 17:52 4/13 -0.38 185809769 1...Re8 2.Rac1 Bc8 3.Ng3 Bd7 4.Nd4 Bxg3 5.hxg3 Ba4 6.Re1 Ne4 7.Qb2 Qd7 jm
