That's indeed very strange, since playing style of ChessTiger14 and GambitTiger2
are completely different. The game output of Shay Bushinsky gave

[Event "Level=Blitz:60'+10. "]
[Site "KC"]
[Date "2002.04.28"]
[Round "?"]
[White "Smirin"]
[Black "GambitTiger0"]
[Result "1-0"]
[ECO "A08"]
[WhiteElo "39"]
[BlackElo "39"]
[PlyCount "77"]
[EventDate "2002.03.19"]

again somewhat unusual [GambitTiger0] so I am still wondering which of the above
programs has been loaded to play against GM Smirin,I.
