Go up one level in this thread



  Yes, in following the match after Bxh3 black makes g3xh2.
  Eventually the white king takes h2 and we have a 5 man endgame.
  The Nalimov tablebase server sees it as a mate in 21 against black.

  However, at blitz time controls (without EGTB's) a mate in 21 is too
  much to see at 1 sec per move which is what I end up with on the 76th
  move of a G/5 match.

   So, I like the much more "human" moves of Bxd3 and h2xg3.

   Maybe the best idea is to forget it and put in EGTB's??????
   Seems that would save me a fair amount of analysis down the road.
