In this position which happened in a game between Hiarcs 8 running at 1800 MHZ
and the novag Handheld chess computer Sapphire(at 20 Mhz) ;Hiarcs 8 played
27...Qxh2?
Not noticing that after 28.Bxf7+! it is a Draw by perpetual check.Alas the
Sapphire could not find the move in the actual game.
[D]r5k1/5p1p/p5p1/1p3bR1/5P1q/1B6/PPP4P/1K1Q4 b
Questions:
1.Does your program play or consider 27..Qxh2?
2.How long does it for your program to see the draw score after 27..Qxh2?
