Okey Sarah, I guess your right. All your comments were okey and taken well with me except the part "hundreds of times" I have been reading posts here several times a day for many years, gosh, I dont know how many, but for a long time. I do not think there have been hundreds of results like this, between two programs of equal playing strength. You know Sarah, it's not so much the 5/0 run that bothered me (past tense) it's the timing of it that does coupled with the fact the CT is equal in strength _and_ the same last ditch save by fritz against (deep Jr another program pier) under identical match timing. You could admit that the question at least does pop into your head, maybe just in passing, but it is there.
