I'm guessing that computers might play the poor move h4 because they see that after the exchange that they will get an h pawn to to the sixth rank. What do other programs play? Do some programs see that just shuffling their king around will hold? The black king then has no way to enter the action. >and could not win with black the following position in game 77 >played Qxa4 and lost >4q2k/2Q3p1/7p/p7/P6P/1n6/6PK/8 b - - 0 1 Black went on to lose this one? Now that is strange. I'll have to download this since now I'm curious why black lost. Again I'll wager a guess that black could not escape perpetual then decided to wrongly give up its kingside pawns. > >Uri
