Let's make sure we are talking about the same thing before proceeding further. I was talking about (actually against) allowing null move in the PV, which is not the same as "at PV nodes". In the PV means *inside* of the alpha-beta window (exact score). You sound like you might be talking about whether or not to try null move at PV nodes, which is a different topic (and only used for fail high, which means the node is not in the PV after all). I don't know of any PVS-like engine (or alpha-beta based for that matter) which allows null move in the PV. Fabien.
