Fritz is not using the tablesbases because this was one of the
conditions the players absolutely insisted on.

Huh? Of course they do. In fact they use highly advanced tablesbases, which may
not be as comprehensive as Nalimov, but extend to more than five pieces. They
are very cleverly compressed in patterns and heuristic examples. It's very
unfair that computers don't have access to the knowledge bases these humans use.
