Does any engine find the best move here...

[d]r3r1k1/1b1nbp1p/1qn1p3/1p1pPp2/p2P4/P2BNN2/1P1Q1BPP/R4RK1 w - - 2 19

Clearly white has the initiative, but there is one move the that stands far above the rest.

Might be an excellent position for Lc0 on fast hardware...

As I was typing this (McCain X4) - really not sure of this is a good search or no - found after a 6B node search :

How did you get these high scores?

Hi,

Yes, Kh1 is winning, but the best is Ng4 which my engine Ratassada 10.43X finds in 1.16 minutes on my PC.

1 + 4.31 Ng4 Kh8 2. Nh6 Rg8 3. Nxf7 Kg7 4. Nh6 Kh8 etc...

Best regards,

Sandro

He has modified the evaluation to give an approximate (percentage) probability of a win. So his engine's scores range from 0 to 100.
