Junior could have a better result

1)The programmers accepted a draw offer from Kanstler
in a position kanstler had less than 1 minute for all the game
kanstler had an adventage in the board but the clock is also a part
of the game and Junior had a good chance to win this game.

2)the programmers should play against smirin
instead of doing a grandmaster draw.

in this case maybe Junior had a 100% result.
