To Edsel -- Twisted bug?

Post by GenoM »

Hi Edsel
What an unusual behaviour of Twisted in the game against Belka. In the very begining of the game this position was reached
[D]rnbqk2r/pp3ppp/4pn2/3pP3/1b1N4/2NB4/PPP2PPP/R1BQK2R b KQkq - 0 7
And here Twisted played:
7... Qc7 {(7. ... Qc7 8.0-0 Qxe5 9.Re1 Ne4 10.g3 f5 11.Qh5+ g6) +0.06/9 3}
It was not even considering exf6. Strange. After logical :) 8.exf6 Twisted played 8... gxf6 realising that it is loosing: {(8. ... gxf6 9.0-0 Nc6 10.Ncb5 Qb6 11.Be3 Ne5 12.Qh5) -3.08/8 3}
Time control is 1'+2" with Igor Korshunov's 50.pgn as opening database. Twisted going nice with 5/6 with this only weird lose.
Regards,
Geno
take it easy :)
