Hey everyone,
Should I allow Null Moves in the LMR section of the search, or is this too drastic/inaccurate/dangerous ?
Thanks

Re: Null Move in LMR
Since in the LMR part of the search, 98% of the time you're going to fail low this node.
Since a fail low in this node is a fail high in the child node, and null move pruning accelerates the fail high, null move is very beneficial.

Both are generally defined as recursive, so if you use one within the other, it works both ways.Henk wrote:Should I allow LMR within NULL move search, or is this too drastic/inaccurate/dangerous ?
