I tryed this positon on my sony tj25 palm using both chessgenius2.0 and
chesstiger 5.2 and chess tiger found the answer in 26sec. I ran the test
position three times just to see if I was mistaken but no in-fact ct found the
solution after hitting 9ply as did CG.

CT saw 1.Rb8 Be5 2.Rd8 Bc7 3.Rf8 anymove then 4.Ne7.( this is what I found as
well)

Chessgenius finds a slightly different way to win for white in 1.Rb8 Be5 2.Rd8
Bc6 3.Nf6+ genius finds this in 00:05/sec (205347 positions @41069/sec). First
the website states that this is a mate in six, but also look at the bench marks
of faster palms none of the solve this problem this fast! whats wrong with this
picture ?? maybe I'm missing something.

[Event "PDA test pos"]
[Site "Mat 6"]
[Result "*"]
[SetUp "1"]
[FEN "R5Nk/7p/4pbpP/n1p4n/2p1b3/K1p3pq/8/8 w - - 0 1"]

1. Rb8 *
