Hi Uri,

Since at least 1 person confirmed it, it is confirmed.

But seriously, if a FM master analysed the position intensively, it's good
enough for me. I don't trust the computers here, they can easily give +1.50 pure
speculative. Besides, it is the second time I see this pattern (in another
position in another forum too). All engines don't want to trade +1.40 that's
pure speculative for a rock-solid +1.20 in the endgame. And you can let these
comps think for years, but that won't change their decision (if no furhter
tactics). You have to be very careful with "hey this topprogram still prefers
Qh3 after 26 ply, it's GOTTA be right!"
