Congratulations.

Tony? It appears to me that Ruffian's 27.Nc7 was caused, in part, by a hash anomaly. With cleared hash, it doesn't consider it; it will play it with hash full, though. I've seen similar behavior with my program, though I don't know the reason. [d]3rn1k1/1p1rpp2/p5p1/q1p1P2p/2P1P3/1P1bB3/P4NPP/R1Q1R1K1 b - - 0 27 27... Ng7 28. Rd1 (28. Bg5 Ne6 29. Bh4 Qc7 30. Qc3 g5 31. Bxg5 (31. Rad1 gxh4 32. Nxd3 Rd4 =+) 31... Nxg5 32. Re3 Nxe4 33. Nxe4 Bxe4 34. Rxe4 Rd1+ 35. Rxd1 Rxd1+ 36. Kf2 Qd7 =+) 28... b5 (28... Ne6 29. Qd2 Qxd2 30. Rxd2 Nf8 31. e6 +=) (28... Qb4 29. Bd2!!) 29. cxb5 Bxb5 30. Rxd7 Rxd7 31. a4 Bc6 32. Bxc5 Ne6 = Ruffian looks like it might play 28...Qb4 after 27...Ng7 28.Rd1, leading to a quick loss. It doesn't consider b5, for some reason.
