I do not mean to say that repetition and hash should not be checked before null move and if I do them before the recursive search then they are done before null move. See russell's post when he suggest also to do null move before calling search that seems to be even better. > >My question is if there is a soecial reason that I do not understand that Crafty >does it. should be special and I typed too fast.
