Hello Dusan,
I gave this to Chess Tiger on my K6-450 and it hit 14 plys in a little over a
minute before it started to "smell a rat".  Tiger did not change it's move from
Kh7 to Kh6 untill after 5:55 at 3/5 of the 14th ply. At the 10 minute mark Tiger
is still looking at this move (Kh6) in the 14th ply and the score is -0.52 but
it will play the move after 5:55.  This probably means Tiger would play this
move at tournament time controls unless it was in time trouble already.
