Yes, 11 plies in blitz games is not unusual.  But 11 plies in Gothmog and 11
plies in Crafty is not the same.  I do much more forward pruning and depth
reductions than Bob, and fewer extensions.  In non-tactical positions like
the one you give, my qsearch is also considerably smaller than Bob's (I think).
