This is a position from a game Hiarcs 7.32 - Crafty 16.6 Time 25 min/game, ChessBase interface etc, but that is not important. 6k1/1p4p1/p7/2Ppp3/1P6/P4KP1/5P1P/8 b - - 0 49 What is interesting is that Crafty (black) thinks the position is about even, with a score fluctuating around equality, while Hiarcs for several plies has realized that it has a won position and has a score about +2 (an exchange of rooks has just taken place some plies ago). I checked 16.6 as a winboard engine, also 16.16: same result. This is a serious mis-evaluation of the pawn structure since white easily can produce passed pawns on both sides of the board, while blacks connected free pawns can do nothing. Bob, maybe you want to look into this... Regards, Ralf
