In this position, the new Little Goliath Revival engine played the fatal 29.
Bh6, and it's evaluation dropped from +1.00 to -1.19 on it's next move.
[D]r3rnk1/p4p2/1qp2Pb1/3p2B1/7Q/2N5/RPPR2P1/7K w - - 7 29
After 55 seconds of analysis, Revival still likes Bh6. I tried several engines
on this position, and they seem to have trouble agreeing on the best move. Some
examples are below. What does your engine think about this position?
