Update search.cpp
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
At PvNodes allow bonus for prior counter move that caused a fail low
for depth 1 and 2. Note : I did a speculative LTC on yellow STC patch
since history stats tend to be highly TC sensitive

STC (Yellow):
LLR: -2.96 (-2.94,2.94) [0.00,5.00]
Total: 64295 W: 13042 L: 12873 D: 38380

LTC:
LLR: 2.96 (-2.94,2.94) [0.00,5.00]

Also use local variable excludedMove in NMP (marotear)
