It was known to be lost. :) He didn't >expect Ne6 most likely, but even if DB had played it, I'm sure he was convinced >he could win, because he could beat Fritz with black. I do not think that he was convinced about it because he knew that deeper blue is better than fritz and I am not sure that he was convinced that he can beat fritz if fritz is using 24 hours per move instead of 3 minutes per move. > >h6 leads to a game that everyone considers dead lost for black. As a result, >I would annotate that move as h6??, or perhaps against a computer, as h6?!. Not everyone. I did not consider it as dead lost and also deeper blue did not evaluate the position as winning for white. If you look at Deeper blue logfiles you can see that deeper blue evaluated the position after b5 as only a small advantage for white. Uri
