Maybe DB just saw that >axb5 was even better than Qb6? Any of these scenarios seem plausable. You ran this for an hour. I don't think an hour is going to do it on anything. I think this is going to be a massive bitch. My Alpha has been working on this for about a day, it's through ply 18 almost, and still has Qb6. I bet if we advance a few plies along the main line in both cases, it would still be hard. Best case would be to find axb5 in finite time. Next best would be to go under +0.5 or so on Qb6, so we can suggest that DB might have had the same occurence had something burbled up based on eval differences. bruce
