The Belle/Blitz sacrifice mentioned in an earlier message
was made in the following position with Black (Belle) to
move:

	BR ** BB ** -- BK -- BR
	BP BP BP BP BQ -- BP --
	-- ** -- ** -- ** BP **
	** -- BB -- ** -- ** --
	-- ** WB BN BN ** -- **
	** -- WN -- ** -- ** --
	WP WP WP WP -- WP WP WP
	WR -- WB WQ ** WR WK --

Just out of curiousity, I handed this position to my faithful Prestige
and put it in "infinite" search mode where it just keeps searching
deeper and deeper to see how long it would take to find the solution.

5 minutes, because it was playing under tournament time controls.

Note that Prestige is much, a full set
