Subject: interesting eval test

Author: Jon Dart

Date: 20:30:36 11/02/05


This arose in an offline test game:
[D] 5R2/r5k1/3p2b1/p1pB4/P1P2R1p/1PP3p1/4r2p/5N1K b - -

Arasan rates Black well ahead according to a static eval,
but Black is in fact in trouble, and lost after
Re1 Kg2 Re2+ Kh3 Re4 Bxe4 Bxe4 Nxh2 g2 Nf3 Bxf3 Kh2 ..
when the Black pawns are blocked. Both the passed pawn
eval and king safety eval kick in here so it is a bit
tricky to evaluate. Arasan rates the Black pawns
too highly in this position.

Crafty 19.17 rates this a slight + for White.
