Tablebase question

Post by Sean Evans »

Hi, when I am using a chessbase program with tablebases and it states at the end of the analysis tb=220625

What does that mean exactly?

Thank you in advance.

That many positions (some repeated) have been seen in search with solutions in tablebases.
They are tablebase hits.

Aided by engines, GMs can be very strong.
