Here are some results: Genius 6, K6-3/450, 32MB hash 13 minutes to see that h6 is bad (-1.5) 37 minutes to find Kd2! (-0.3) Fritz 5.32, P2-300, 64MB hash 45 minutes, and it still thinks h6 is a draw My experience is that Fritz can be quite stupid in endgames. Nice job by DarkThought to find Kd2! in relatively short time. Perhaps if Ed is following this thread he can tell us how long DarkThought thought in this position. --Peter
