However, The King needs almost 15 minutes to show a positive score for White: Time Depth Score Positions Moves 0:00 1/3 -1.52 1674 36.Kh2 Qc2 37.Ne4 Qc1 0:00 1/3 -1.41 3538 36.Ne4 Qe2 37.Kh2 Bd3 0:00 1/4 -1.09 12833 36.Ne4 Be8 37.Kh2 Rc2 0:00 1/5 -1.08 39118 36.Ne4 Qf1+ 37.Kh2 Be8 38.Nd6 Rd8 39.Bg3 0:00 1/6 -0.95 113088 36.Ne4 Qf1+ 37.Kh2 Be8 38.h5 g5 39.Nd6 Rc1 40.Nf5 0:01 1/7 -0.96 285768 36.Ne4 Qf1+ 37.Kh2 Be8 38.Nd6 Rd8 39.Ne4 Qc1 40.Nf6+ Nxf6 41.Qxf6 0:04 1/8 -0.75 991363 36.Ne4 Qf1+ 37.Kh2 Be8 38.Kg3 h5 39.Re7 Kf8 40.Nf6 Bc6 41.Nxd5 Bxd5 42.Qh8+ Kxe7 43.Qxc8 0:09 1/9 -0.88 2087928 36.Ne4 Qf1+ 37.Kh2 Be8 38.Kg3 Qc1 39.Nf6+ Nxf6 40.Qxf6 b5 41.d5 exd5 42.Bd4 Qe1+ 43.Kh3 0:55 1/10 -0.34 12392315 36.Ne4 Rf8 37.Be1 Qd1 38.Kh2 Bf1 39.Bd2 Qe2 40.Qg3 Rc8 41.Bxh6 Qc2 1:34 1/11 -0.25 21413687 36.Ne4 Rf8 37.Be1 Qd1 38.Kh2 Bf1 39.Bd2 Qe2 40.Qg3 Rc8 41.Bxh6 Qc2 42.Rd7 3:24 1/12 -0.03 47706262 36.Ne4 Rf8 37.Kh2 Qc2 38.Be3 Bf1 39.Nd2 Nxe3 40.Qxe3 Bb5 41.Qxh6 Qc3 42.Ne4 Qxd4 43.Kh3 14:48 2/13 0.44 206948747 36.Ne4 Qe2 37.Kh2 Bd3 38.Nf6+ Kh8 39.Ng4+ f6 40.Nxf6 Qxe5+ 41.dxe5 Nxf6 42.exf6 b5 43.Be1 Rf8 44.Rd7 Bc2 45.Bc3 jm
