Subject: Evaluate Hashtab and Lazy evaluate

How do you guys deal with this?

In addition to the ordinary hash table, I have an evaluate hash table with only
absolute values (no upper and lower flags) and a lazy evaluate that just quits
evaluating when the score exceeds alpha-Magin or beta+Margin.
I don't store lazy evaluate values in the evaluate hashtab - they are not
complete. As I see it there are a few options:

1. Don't use lazy evaluate
2. Include upper, lower and inside flags in the evaluate hashtab as well
3. Don't use a specialised evlaute hashtab. Instead use the ordinary one.

How do you deal with this? Personally I don't like number 3.
