Subject: Re: Post Shirov mate in 14 please

Go up one level in this thread


It only occurs in the hypothetical mate in 14, that Shirov sets up to convince
us that the chess software can't find the mate.  I Kf2 happens on move 11, in
most variations.  Another curious thing about CM6000 is that when I set it to
solve for mate in 18 or 14 it calculates alot of line, but doesn't solve for
mate before I got impatient and closed this window.  When I run the position in
a 5 minute game however, it plays 1.Rxg7+ immediately!  CM6000 experts, what is
going on here?
