I dont know...
the delta type of prunning means that the eval is supposed to not give more than
delta points?

When yo count Whitepoints - Blackpoints for example, I dont know if you count
bonus and penalties, but I only count bonus for the side, so sometimes I only
need evaluate one side for example when I have susbtracted the bonus of the
enemy side and still fail high we are ready.
