>Yow.  If Black is in good shape here, that eval looks kinda low...
I think this is typical for any sort of gambit or piece sacrifice.  Computer
evaluation will reflect the missing piece/pawn but there will be a steady rise
in the eval.  I suspect in another 3 or 4 ply a big benefit will show up.  Of
couse it won't be visible for another two moves.
