I do not see something singular in this position white can play many moves without being -2.xx and even without being-1.xx If there are singular extensions then there must be many extensions that begin far from the root. If I were white then I would play 28.b4(Junior5 changes its mind from Be4 to b4 and now to Rd2 without a losing evaluation for white) I want to see a tree that prove Junior5 or Fritz5 that the evaluation of the position is less than -1 (I mean the evaluation at the leaves after search at tournament time control is less than -1, and the evaluation after every move of white that go out of the tree is less than -1) Uri
